Snapper Point Cave

Snapper Point Cave is a natural opening in coastal rock within Munmorah State Conservation Area. The formation extends back into the stone, with ocean waves regularly entering through the main entrance.

The cave formed over millions of years through water erosion along this coastline. This geological process shaped the rock into the distinctive opening visible today.

Local fishermen have long used Snapper Point Cave as a reference point for navigation and fishing spots along the New South Wales coastline.

Check tide times and weather before visiting, as strong swells and currents can make the area very dangerous. Proper planning helps ensure a safe experience when exploring this coastal site.

During high tide, powerful water surges at the entrance can create dramatic fountains of spray. These forceful movements are especially striking when storms drive larger swells toward the coast.
