Active Photopoint Seaspray (Boat Ramp)
Merriman Creek Estuary is a wave dominated estuary. Due to its location in a rain shadow it does not receive regular inundations but is known to close. Anecdotal evidence suggests concerned residents will open the estuary themselves if they see fit.
A popular site for fishermen, surfers and kayakers alike.
Access from boat ramp carpark. Walk down onto the foredune at the point where the river meets the beach. From this vantage point you will be able to take photos of the photopoint
