The location is also associated with the Dreaming story of creator ancestor Tjilbruke. Today, features at Wirrina cove include marina named Marina St. Vincent, the New Terry Hotel & Golf Resort, a variety of camping and other holiday accommodation at the Wirrina Cove Holiday Park other accommodation options. Little Gorge, near which the HMAS Hobart Memorial Lookout is located, is north of the cove, on the road to Normanville.
