Just quietly, we’re chuffed to be announced as Winner - Best Contemporary Australian Restaurant in the 2026 NQ & NT Restaurant & Catering Hostplus Awards for Excellence.

We’re really not one for accolades but we have been waiting a good 30+ years for this one, so you’d better believe some champagne is in order.

This achievement belongs to our incredible team - thank you for your dedication, passion & talent - and also to our amazing guests who continue to visit us, even after 70+ years in operation.

Much love - the Nautilus family 🥂💛

If you love seafood, you cannot go to Port Douglas without trying our signature Whole Coral Trout.

Prized globally for its pristine, delicate, white, flaky flesh, this premium reef fish is considered one of the best-tasting fish in Australia. And we can’t disagree with them.

Served whole at the table, it’s not only impressive in looks but impressive in taste. The perfect inclusion in an unforgettable Tropical North Queensland dining experience.

We hope to see you for a delicious evening soon.
