Half Moon Bay Marina in Yorkeys Knob, Cairns Regional Council, Australia | Marina

Half Moon Bay Marina consists of 200 Marina berths of varying sizes from 10m to 30m. Catering to the needs of up to the largest of vessels, the Marina is of pontoon style construction with Comsen units supplying both power and water to all berths.
The Half Moon Bay Marina is located at the Cairns northern beachside suburb of Yorkeys Knob, Australia, just 20 minutes from the centre of Cairns, 15 minutes from Cairns International Airport, and 5 minutes to the large Smithfield shopping complex. Yorkeys Knob is a delightful destination that has everything to offer visitors - safe swimming beaches, restaurants, shopping centre, accommodation, world class Marina, sporting activities, car hire and really friendly locals.
The Half Moon Bay Marina was constructed in 1994 and is nestled in the picturesque cove of Half Moon Bay, and was completed at a development cost of 12 million dollars.
The multi-million dollar Marina club house was completed in October 1995, and is built out over the Marina with a huge shade sail covered deck, and outdoor alfresco dining facilities.
The latest quiet electronic poker machines are available for relaxed gambling and are adjacent to the modern bar. From the bar area, the view is magnificent, overlooking the Marina and out to the Coral Sea.
Adjacent to Half Moon Bay Marina is Yorkey's Knob, a natural headland rising some 100 metres above sea level, and providing excellent protection against the prevailing south-east trade winds.
Both breakwaters are designed to cyclonic standards and protect the north and north-west sectors of the Marina.
In March 1997 and February 1999 the level of protection offered by the Marina was shown during Cyclone Justin and Rhona, with no damage sustained to moored craft.
A public boat ramp is also available on the southern edge of the Marina precinct. Being inside the Marina breakwater, the boat ramp is well sheltered, and ample trailer parking is available.
In addition to weekly, monthly and annual Marina berth rental, casual berthing is also available, and travellers are most welcome. Berths can also be purchased for own use, or used as an investment.
