Tin Can Bay, Norman Point

The boat ramp at Norman Point provides a well-used public access point onto Snapper Creek, with the calm waters of Tin Can Bay beyond.

The site is noted for its large trailer parking area and boat-washing facilities, making it a practical choice for trailered vessels. Norman Point also accommodates a public jetty, fuel pontoon, and the Volunteer Coastguard base.

The surrounding area adds further appeal. A tackle shop, restaurants, and a café are close by, and the point is well known for the morning appearances of rare Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins, which can be fed under free supervision in front of the nearby café.

Further along the south-east bank of Snapper Creek, boaters will find slipways, trawler berths, a chandlery, and Tin Can Bay Marina.
