For a meal right by the water, Ironbar is about a 750-metre walk and serves fresh seafood and tropical cocktails. Closer still, Koko Poolside Bar & Kitchen is 150 metres away, and Hi Tide is 350 metres, both good for a relaxed meal. Epicurean Port Douglas, 400 metres away, is another option. The marina, less than a ten-minute walk, also has dining overlooking the inlet. You'll have plenty of choices without going far.
