Please bear with us over the coming weeks - while we undertake some repairs we will be operating at a reduced capacity. If you are unable to make a reservation, please join the wait list and we will contact you in the case of any cancellations.

[All works will be done outside of dining hours, so you can still expect a serene atmosphere ✨]

We are thrilled to be named in the top 1% of restaurants worldwide by Tripadvisor. Most importantly, it means that the beautiful guests who dine with us have enjoyed their evening, often so much that they choose to share it with others, to recommend us to their friends, and to commend us.

Thank you for all your kind words. And thank you for dining with us. We hope we will welcome you again soon. And if you’re yet to dine with us but you are tempted, we do hope that Nautilus blows your mind.

Lots of love 💛🌴

Special. Elegant. Celebration-worthy. Yet still beautifully relaxed and entirely delicious. A night at Nautilus aims to be all that, and hopefully a little more.

Thank you for letting us be part of your special occasions, for being part of the joy, and occasionally part of the glamour. Life is to be celebrated, and Nautilus is always here for it.

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 ch*****ne 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 🥂💛

The faces behind the flavours. The talent behind the taste. The mayhem behind the magic.

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.
