Located on the west coast of Norfolk Island near Anson Bay, Puppy’s Point is known for its spectacular sunsets, with people gathering here for picnics at dusk. As the sun drops beneath the ocean horizon, the sky cycles through a palette of fiery oranges, gold, purple and magenta, slowly easing into twilight. In the foreground are Norfolk pines and grazing cows.

Pack your own paddock-to-plate picnic and find yourself a bench or patch of grass from which to watch nature’s end-of-day spectacle.

The reason behind the name Puppy’s Point won’t be immediately clear from the picnic area. If you find yourself on a boat looking back to the cliffs, however, you’ll be able to see a rock formation that resembles a dog.
