Coorong National Park Description
Coorong National Park (300 sq.km) was established mainly to protect its rich bird life and fascinating coastal scenery. A long, narrow lagoon, never wider than 3 km, and shallow saltpans are sheltered from the surf by the high sand dunes on the long Younghusband Peninsula. The area is frequented by cormorants, pelicans and ibises.
