Mackay's magnificent world-class Marina Village is situated half way between Brisbane and Cairns at the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef. The magical islands of the Southern Whitsundays, such as Brampton, Keswick, St Bees and Scawfell are just off the coast and visible from the sea wall.
Mackay Marina Village has a tropical ambience, with leafy palms lining the waterfront esplanade and a view beyond to luxury yachts, sailing boats, blue skies and tropical islands. Frequent visitors to the waters around the Marina include dolphins and schools of jumping fish. Visitors during June to September may be fortunate enough to spot migrating whales.
The thriving commercial precinct boasts an impressive array of shops, bars and restaurants as well as the luxury four and a half star Clarion Hotel Mackay Marina. The hotel contains 79 self-contained suites - each with waterfront view - Latitude 21 Bar and Restaurant, function facilities, walk-in wine cellar, 24-hour reception and tour desk. Tours and activities available include day and sunset cruises to the reef and local islands, game fishing, jet ski tours, para-sailing, sailing, rainforest treks, platypus watching, nature trails and much more.
The marina is next to sandy Harbour Beach and home to the Pine Islet Lighthouse, one of the only working kerosene lighthouses left in the world. The marina itself contains 328 berths, with six Mega Berths of 60-metre capacity and alongside vehicle access, 18 new big boat berths, which can hold boats of up to 38 metres and 32 fishing berths - plus one maintenance berth.
