Stunning Venue, Watch for Kids' Safety!Stunning Venue, Watch for Kids' Safety!
Absolutely beautiful spot for a wedding, however just be mindful if you have little ones there is a big drop off to the water and the rail is not fully closed.Absolutely beautiful spot for a wedding, however just be mindful if you have little ones there is a big drop off to the water and the rail is not fully closed.

Perfect Wedding Venue, Just Need Ceiling Fans!Perfect Wedding Venue, Just Need Ceiling Fans!
Fantastic venue for weddings and functions. My only constructive feedback: Can some ceiling fans be installed along the inside of the building. Would have made a warm tropical afternoon in a suit far more palatable 👍Fantastic venue for weddings and functions.

Sugar Wharf: Stunning Waterfront Wedding VenueSugar Wharf: Stunning Waterfront Wedding Venue
Beautiful spot for contemplation of the waterfront of Port‘s Dickson Inlet overlooking the Coral Sea and Daintree Rainforest. The Sugar Wharf is historic old building was home to Ben Cropp and his “Shipwreck Museum” for many years but is now open to the public as a wonderful waterfront venue. It’s tucked away behind the St Mary’s by the Sea, a popular wedding chapel in Port Douglas with it’s own little beach and cove making it the perfect spot for your casual photos and to watch the sunset.Beautiful spot for contemplation of the waterfront of Port‘s Dickson Inlet overlooking the Coral Sea and Daintree Rainforest.
