Comfy motel. Aircon, beds, lamps, blinds, kitchenette and bathroom were great. Nice to have shampoo/conditioner provided. Lovely towels. We were in 6C which was tucked behind another room so no view but it was fine. So much to do we literally just slept there. Close to Country Club for dinner. Close for dolphin feeding.

Tin Can Bay is a lovely, relaxed small seaside town that offers an IGA, RSL, Bowls Club & Country Club, to name a few. The Country Club does a great Chinese meal for $13 a head. There is dolphin feeding available which is a winner with children. Plenty of fishing & parks either playground facilities. An easy place to get around, relaxed atmosphere. We love to come here to escape the hustle & bustle of the Sunshine Coast 🌞.

Tin Can Bay is a lovely seaside town that is fairly quiet. The locals are quite friendly too. We went to the Dolphin Discovery Centre to see the Dolphin feeding. The cost for entry to just sit and watch was $10 per person but if you want to feed the dolphins, then the cost is $15 per person. We were given a wonderful talk about the dolphins and the rules regarding the feeding of them. It was well worth it. The RSL Club, which doesn't look much from outside, is open from 3 - 6pm daily for cheap drinks. It is worth dropping in and having a few cold drinks and a chat with a local. They are very friendly here. The Country Club (which is both a golf club and bowling club) is another great place for a drink and dinner. The meals are quite reasonably priced, although we didn't eat there. We had food to cook in our cabin.

The bay itself was quite beautiful, but extremely windy while we were there, very nice quiet little town, the simple little take away shop (the snack shack) was definitely the best in town and most affordable and great quality food.

Tin Can Bay, off Season, is a pleasant seaside area suitable for a relaxed quiet holiday space or as a launching pad for a more adventurous ocean experience if you are looking for it. Rainbow Beach and K'gari Island (Fraser) are easily accessible from here also, just a short drive away. Useful to have a car to get around (a 4WD would take you to extra adventures) but there is also a nice easy walk along the Esplanade to take in the ocean air. Looks like people with yachts or boats can safely shelter there also and access the town.

Tin Can Bay doesn't really strike me as a tourist spot - unless you're into fishing. Dining options are limited, as are town attractions. It would be well worth your while to bring groceries for any extended stay - as there is only 1 over priced IGA in store in town. If there was another - I didnt find it. Definitely suit anyone who wants the quiet life.
