Boat Beach

Last updated October 2026

Boat Beach at Seal Rocks is framed by headlands and rocky outcrops, and MidCoast Council says the water here is nearly always quite flat and suitable for families. Snorkelling is good along the rocks. Council lists picnic tables and a flat public grass reserve at the front of the beach. The beach is unpatrolled, 4WD access is for boat launching only, and the road is very narrow with minimal parking. Nearby (OpenStreetMap): Single Fin Coffee (cafe, about 215 m).
