Popular with skilled surfers, fishers and beachcombers,
this park includes Waitpinga and Parsons beaches and surrounding
coastal vegetation. A series of signposted walking trails start from the bush campground. Due to the fragile coastal environment, wood fires are prohibited all year, but there are free gas barbecues, rainwater fit for drinking, public conveniences and shelter. Coastal White Mallee, Cup Gum and Pink Gums are the most common trees. About a third of the park in the north west is covered by Pink and Blue Gum. |
