Cowrie Point is a rural locality in the local government area (LGA) of Circular Head in the North-west and west LGA region of the island state of Tasmania, Australia. The locality is about east of the town of Smithton. The 2016 census recorded a population of 14 for the state suburb of Cowrie Point.[1]
Cowrie Point was gazetted as a locality in 1962.[2]
Originally called Cowrie Point (after the geographical feature) it was proposed in 1965 that the settlement be renamed Brickmakers Bay (after another nearby geographical feature) but this was not accepted.[3]
The waters of Bass Strait form most of the northern boundary.
Route A2 (Bass Highway) runs through from north-east to north-west.[2] [4]
