Ferries to and from Townsville

Townsville is a lively coastal city in northeastern Australia, known as the main gateway to Magnetic Island and the Great Barrier Reef. From Townsville, ferries to Magnetic Island run often, so it’s a popular route for day trips and longer stays. The crossing is short, and you’ll find plenty of services, cafes, and shops near the port to fill time before departure. While Magnetic Island is close, other islands and reef spots sit farther offshore and usually need longer boat tours or organized trips. Townsville’s mix of city comforts and nearby Island escapes makes planning your ferry travel simple.
