La Marina Italian Restaurant & Bar

La Marina is a family-owned waterfront Italian restaurant at the Port of Airlie marina in Airlie Beach, with handmade pasta, wood-fired pizza and yacht-lined views. Dogs are welcome in the open-air seating alongside the marina, so you can dine with a water view and the dog at your feet.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor, open-air seating beside the marina. The section is spacious and breezy, with room for a dog to settle beside the table without blocking foot traffic. Dogs must stay leashed and well-behaved. Bring your own collapsible bowl, as the venue is set up for human dining first.

Known for. Handmade gnocchi and pasta, signature wood-fired pizza and seafood, and a calm marina setting that works well for an afternoon sundowner.

Getting there and parking. 1/33 Port Drive, Port of Airlie. Free and paid parking sits in the Port of Airlie precinct, a short flat stroll from the door, and it is an easy walk along the marina boardwalk from central Airlie Beach.

Nearby with the dogs. The Port of Airlie boardwalk is a flat dog-friendly coastal path, Boathaven Beach is a short walk for an on-leash coastal walk, and the Bicentennial Walkway runs toward Cannonvale.

Best for an early dinner or sundowner on the marina. Good for leashed, settled dogs of any size.
