A small South Australian island reserve protecting seabird breeding habitat and calcarenite coastal landforms.
Eba Island Conservation Park
Eba Island Conservation Park is a small protected island reserve located off the west coast of Eyre Peninsula in South Australia, near the township of Streaky Bay. It shelters seabird breeding colonies and an unusual inshore island habitat within the sheltered waters of Streaky Bay, a short distance south of Perlubie Hill. The island is entirely composed of calcarenite, often capped with harder limestone, and its shape reflects the contrasting energy of the surrounding sea. On its exposed southwestern flanks, wave action has carved blowholes, jagged ridges, and scalloped rock, while the more sheltered northern side has gentler sandy coves and small headlands.
