Clipper Restaurant Bar & Lounge

Address: 25 Ocean View Avenue, Airlie Beach, QLD, Australia

Next to the pool at Coral Sea Resort is Clipper Restaurant, which has a unique five-course tasting menu as well as a pricier, more gourmet menu experience. Steak tartare, ceviche, snapper, and New Zealand venison are favorites. End the evening with date pudding or a palate-cleansing matcha parfait.

Sorrento Restaurant & Bar

Address: 22 Shingley Drive, Airlie Beach, QLD, Australia

If you’re looking for views of the marina on your Airlie Beach cruise, Sorrento Restaurant & Bar is a good pick for pizzas and pastas. Local oysters make a good starter before continuing to a rich pasta or risotto dish.

Fish D’Vine & The Rum Bar

Address: 303 Shute Harbour Road, Airlie Beach, QLD, Australia

Relaxed but regularly crowded, Fish D’Vine and The Rum Bar offer over 450 rums to choose from, plus seafood galore. Start with fresh-shucked oysters or calamari before moving on to the main dish featuring a fresh catch of the day, like a Thai fish curry. You can also indulge in market price fish selections like local mud crab or whole fish.
