Funnel Bay is a pleasant anchorage conveniently located about 2.5 nM west of [[Airlie_Beach_Marina|Airlie Beach Marina]].  Note that this bay has its name for a good reason.  Winds from the SE can funnel down the valley and increase quite dramatically compared to surrounding waters.  Avoid anchoring here when strong SEly winds are forecast.
