Cygnet Estuary Conservation Park: Protected Estuarine Geography and Mapped Wetlands
A focused coastal reserve on the shores of Kangaroo Island
Located on the northern side of Kangaroo Island, Cygnet Estuary Conservation Park provides a protected zone for tidal lagoons and river-mouth mudflats. The park serves as a key example of habitat-focused conservation, preserving the unique transition zone where the Cygnet River meets Nepean Bay. This mapped area highlights the subdued coastal landforms and fringing estuarine vegetation characteristic of South Australia's sheltered shores.
