The neat township of Port Neill, just 3 kms off the Lincoln Highway, is well set up to cater for holiday makers. The beaches are safe and clean with a picnic area and lawns on the foreshore. Port Neill is a favourite fishing spot and is renowned for its sheltered waters.
The township has a surprising number of attractions for such a small town. A variety of accommodation is available.
Historic Lady Kinnard Anchor and the World War II cannon are a focus point on the foreshore. The 'Green Shed' , now a commodious shelter shed was converted from the goods shed. Gas BBQs are provided.
An interesting collection of farm implements used by local settlers can be seen at Annear Park .
The Information Gazebo provides Town Map and information on local conservation parks and tourist drives.
