Port Douglas Markets

The Port Douglas Markets  re-opened on Sunday, 28 June, 2020. For more information, please read Council’s media release.

The iconic, Port Douglas Markets are held every Sunday from 8am-1:30pm in Market Park, Port Douglas. Market Park adjoins ANZAC Park and is located on Wharf Street, overlooking the picturesque Dickson Inlet and the Daintree Rainforest.

Established almost 35 years ago, the Port Douglas Markets are famous for serving up a wide variety of locally produced food, seasonal fresh produce, as well as hand-crafted goods of every description.

In 1998, Council decided that the famous Port Douglas Sunday Markets would be a “Cotters Market”, thereby ensuring that goods offered for sale were made by the stallholder.

Helpful information for those visiting the markets:

  • A carpark is located adjacent to Market Park, although it can quickly fill up on busy days.
  • Alternative parking can be found along suburban streets or at the Crystalbrook Marina Port Douglas.
  • Reflecting its natural surrounds, the market grounds are grassed and not equipped with paved pathways. The ground may be uneven in sections and assistance may be required.
