The sand spits of Station Point merge with another series of active spits that are tied to the western side of Cape Keppel. The cape is capped by grassy, 60 m high Bald Hill. There are station buildings on the slopes of the cape about 500 m south of the point, with a vehicle track leading to the beach. However it can only be used for boating at high tide. The western beach (1396) is approximately 600 m in length, however the length, width and shape change with the movement of the sand spits, produced by sand moving around the cape and into the infilling, shallow bay. A series of rocks extending north of the cape form the northern boundary, while the spits merge into sand flats and the mangrove-fringed creek to the south.
