Franklin Harbor Historical Museum
A small local history museum that tells bits and pieces of the Cowell area.
A small conservation area that preserves an area of mangroves and samphire flats, which attract a lot of sea birds. Getting here is 5 kilometres out-of-town, and you can only get here by car.
Cowell Museum is on the main street by the water.
A very short boardwalk that passes through some of the mangroves of the region.
A small rather classical looking bakery. Although the bakery may appear small, it has much more to offer than what it would look like for its size.
