Fishing & Reef
Fishing Greenzones
Fishing Greenzones are designated marine areas where fishing is restricted or prohibited to protect and preserve the delicate ecosystems of the Southern Great Barrier Reef. These zones are crucial for maintaining biodiversity and ensuring the sustainability of fish populations.
When planning your fishing trips, please familiarise yourself with the location of these Greenzones and adhere to all regulations to help conserve our marine environment.
Detailed maps and guidelines are available to help you identify these areas and ensure a responsible and enjoyable fishing experience.
Fishing @ The Marina
NOTE: NO Fishing, NO Swimming, and NO Snorkelling
For the safety and enjoyment of all our guests, fishing, swimming, and snorkelling are not permitted within the 1770 Marina.
We ask that you respect this rule to maintain a clean and peaceful environment.
However, there are plenty of fantastic fishing spots nearby. Please review the Greenzone maps to discover the best local fishing areas around 1770 and the Southern Great Barrier Reef.
For swimming, there is a beach just around the corner. And for snorkelling, we recommend Lady Musgrave Island!

Lady Musgrave Island offers a unique fishing experience with its mixed fishing zones.
This stunning coral cay, part of the Southern Great Barrier Reef, features designated areas for both recreational fishing and protected marine zones. Enjoy a diverse range of fishing opportunities while respecting the conservation efforts to preserve this pristine environment. Always check local regulations and guidelines to ensure you’re fishing in the permitted zones.
There are restrictions on vessel use, prohibiting swimming or snorkelling in the access channel to the beach, and banning the lighting of fires on the island, beach, or in the lagoon.
