About the Walking Trail
A great walk for families winding through the dunes to a viewing area overlooking pelican breeding islands.
At the end of the trail there is a viewing platform looking out to the Coorong’s pelican breeding islands. The breeding rookery here in the Coorong is the largest Australian Pelican breeding colony in Australia.
There are some interpretive signs along the Jack Point Pelican Observatory Walk explaining the role the island’s breeding ground has for the pelicans.
