Set in the Great Barrier Reef amid the 74 islands of the Whitsunday group, Hamilton Island offers boating enthusiasts a holiday experience to rival all others. Spectacular cruising grounds, world-class facilities and a history of sailing and yachting events make Hamilton Island the ultimate location for private and charter boats.
Hamilton Harbour - Arrival and Orientation
Visiting vessels are based at the Marina Village inside a manmade harbour on Hamilton Island's west coast. Access to the harbour is via Dent Passage, a small channel between Hamilton and Dent Islands. Fringing coral reefs necessitate careful navigation on approach. The harbour entrance is clearly defined by port and starboard beacons. These also keep boat traffic clear of the island's jet airport, whose runway lies just to the south.
The proper procedure for docking is to contact Hamilton Island Marina prior to arrival. The concierge can be reached from 8am to 5pm by phone (+61 (0) 7 4946 8353) or VHF (channels 16 & 68). Ideally berths should be booked well in advance. Charter companies usually take care of reservations on behalf of their clients. Vessels may be asked to stand off the harbour entrance while a tender is launched to guide them in.
