PORT OF QUINTELL BEACH
OVERVIEWQuintell Beach is a community port with a barge facility located on the east coast of northern Cape York. The port services the needs of the Lockhart River community and remote grazing properties. No tug or pilotage services are required at the port.
TRADE
The port receives its income from the trade over the barge ramp. The introduction of a road transport service to the area has meant a general reduction in the volume of cargo, but the area is not accessible by road for four to five months of the year.
