TIN CAN BAY

TIN CAN BAY

Tin Can Bay is a pretty little town in the Wide Bay area of Queensland. It is located on a deep but narrow sheltered inlet and is home to some very friendly estuarine dolphins. Dolphin feeding is on every morning from 7.30am and actual feeding is at 8am. It is held at the marina at the tip of the point and costs $10 for entrance and feeding or $5 for entrance and watching. Your entrance also gives you a discount coffee and/or breakfast at the cafe there which provides very reasonably priced meals anyway. Keith and I had visited Tin Can Bay before and loved it so we were keen to return and we weren't disappointed. It was just as pretty as we remembered and the locals just as friendly. We were lucky enough to spot wild horses on our way in last time but unfortunately didn't see any this visit. We went to the dolphin feeding again and had a cup of coffee afterwards. It was a lovely sunny morning and the beauty of this place is that there is nothing pretentious about it. Kids and adults alike love it, they get to be up close and personal with the dolphins and get a good feed afterwards. What can be better than that. Tin Can Bay also has a Seafood shop where you can buy the fishermans daily catch at very reasonable prices.
