A little more detail….

The bustling tropical township of Airlie Beach is situated on the mainland coast of the Whitsunday region, and is nestled in the foothills of the pristine Conway National Park.

It is the central access point to the unique chain of 74 Whitsunday Islands. Virtually all of these islands are National Parks, with just eight island resorts sprinkled throughout. The entire chain is set in a world heritage marine park and is sheltered by the “eighth wonder of the World”, the Great Barrier reef.

Portside Whitsunday is the perfect location in Airlie Beach for the holiday-maker. It combines its own unique attractions and services with its proximity to all that the town’s tourist strip has to offer. There are no hills to walk up. Portside is directly across the road from the proposed new “Port of Airlie Marina” and all the town’s main facilities are but a short stroll away including the famous Airlie Lagoon.

Getting to Portside Whitsunday:

By Road : Turn off the Bruce Highway 1km north of Proserpine and follow the signs to Airlie Beach and the Whitsundays. Travel through central Airlie Beach and you’ll find Portside at the end of the main street opposite Coconut Grove.
