About the function space

The incredible views from this slice of paradise will wow your guests.

Island Bar is the best kind of exclusive - to access it take a ferry from mainland Townsville which takes approximately 20 minutes. Ferries run as late as 10pm and resume at 6am. Fear not, there is accommodation onsite in the stunning beach huts which looks out over one of the best views in Australia.

There will be fresh food made onsite to cater for your party and your stay.

This must cost a fortune you ask? Quite the opposite. $15 for the ferry. Rooms from $30 and free venue hire.
