Shute Harbour Marina, located east of Airlie Beach via Conway National Park, serves as a primary gateway to the Whitsunday Islands and the Great Barrier Reef.

The marine terminal features three finger pontoons with deep-water access for vessels up to 55 metres, 14 flexible berths, and high-flow diesel and ULP98 fuelling.

Onsite facilities include a licensed café, bait and ice, 24-hour CCTV security, and vehicle and crane access to berths for servicing and provisioning.

The terminal also functions as a key departure point for island resort transfers and marine tours, with connections operated by Cruise Whitsundays. Regular bus services, taxis, and ride-share options provide land-side access.

The harbour additionally plays a role in emergency island evacuations and supports berthing for marine safety and water police vessels year-round.
