Built in 1880 on the hill in Port Douglas, this historic church was relocated to the current site on November 11, 1988. The Church was fully-restored over a long, difficult twelve months. An official re-opening ceremony was held on November 11, 1989. St Mary’s By The Sea is now a non-denominational chapel.
Inside, you will find a huge glass altar window offering breathtaking views of the beach, Coral Sea and rainforest clad mountains. You will also find stained glass windows & traditional wooden pews. The church bell can also be ringing on your wedding day.
