Point Lowly is a popular boating destination on the upper Spencer Gulf in South Australia, situated across False Bay from the Whyalla marina and within easy trailerable distance of it.

A small boat ramp sits adjacent to the historic lighthouse, providing access to productive fishing grounds in the surrounding waters. The area is well regarded for its fishing, with big snapper — fish exceeding the coveted 30 lb (13.

6 kg) mark — a prized target for anglers heading out from Whyalla. Point Lowly is also known as a gathering point for tens of thousands of Giant Cuttlefish during their annual aggregation, making it a destination of interest beyond fishing alone.
