Point Hicks Marine National Park

Located alongside Croajingolong National Park, Point Hicks Marine National Park holds marine significance along the coastline and into the waters. Under the oceans waves is a natural wonderland of granite subtidal reef, intertidal rock platforms and offshore sands. Two shipwrecks hide in the seas, the SS Kerangie and the SS Saros. Marine life is rich in diversity including sea stars, abalone, fan worms, sea shells, hermit crabs and sea slugs and fish species.
