IN & AROUND TIN CAN BAY

DOLPHIN FEEDING

Year round at Norman Point, next to the boat ramp between 7.00 – 8.30 am. Bookings are not required, however, it's a 'first in - first served' basis in regard to the feeding, so we suggest that you arrive there around 7:00am to ensure you secure your entry for feeding time.

BIRD WATCHING

You will soon discover that Tin Can Bay is home to a truly wonderful variety of birds. With a list of over 137 species already sighted, our town is gaining a 'reputation' as a great place to bird watch! Whether bicycle riding, jogging, or just casually strolling, follow the signage along the 4 km stretch of the easily accessible “Tin Can Bay Foreshore Bird Walk”, a new addition to the Site “Bird Trails of Cooloola”.

ENVIRONMENTAL WALKWAY

Explore the Environmental Walkway commencing at the library with a history of Tin Can Bay. Follow the pathway through the playground noting points of interest on clearly marked signs as you wander through pockets of natural forest glades and over a bridge where mangroves grow to towering gums holding whistling Kite nests high above. You can continue to Crab Creek and a short walk back to Tin Can Bay Motel.
