Coffin Bay National Park

Coffin Bay National Park is a protected coastal landscape on the Eyre Peninsula of South Australia, occupying the long peninsula that frames the sheltered waters of Coffin Bay itself. The park lies approximately 301 kilometres west of Adelaide and 46 kilometres west of Port Lincoln, making it one of the more remote coastal protected areas in the state. The landscape is defined by a striking combination of white sand beaches, limestone cliffs, coastal dune systems, and extensive wetlands that support remarkable biodiversity. The park's coastline faces outward toward islands and reef systems in the Southern Ocean, creating a dramatic interface between land and sea. This coastal peninsula environment is relatively rare in South Australia's protected area network, making Coffin Bay a significant representative of the region's maritime and dune ecosystems.
