In the spirit of reconciliation, Marlin Coast Neighbourhood Centre acknowledges the Yirrganydji people, the Traditional Custodians of Djabugay country that runs northwards from Trinity Inlet to Port Douglas. We would also pay our respects to their Elders past, present and future, and honour those whose culture and customs have nurtured and continue to nurture this land.
