Townsville, QLD, Australia

The Port of Townsville provides all of North Queensland with a world-class gateway for commerce and trade. It continues to be one of the state’s fastest growing ports. In the 2004/2005 almost ten million tonnes of cargo passed over our wharves.

The port is situated in the heart of tropical North Queensland (1,359 kilometres north of Brisbane, Queensland's capital city), and is unique in that its sea jurisdiction encompasses the World Heritage area adjacent to the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.

Customers play a vital role in the Port’s development, operations, and continued success. Their needs are met by the provision of safe navigation within the harbour, by ensuing ongoing development opportunities with dredging and reclamation works, and the timely and reliable provision of Port services.

The Port community is comprised of the Port of Townsville, Queensland Government agencies, and privately-owned and operated facilities and functions - making it a vibrant and ever-growing commercial hub.

Since the Port’s first wharf was constructed in 1863, the Port has been central to the economic development of North Queensland. We dedicate our efforts to furthering our strong economic and social relationship with the city and the wider region to ensure its continued growth and prosperity.
