Birdwatching Tours

The Coorong is a wetland of international significance playing host to 12 species of international migratory birds and is the largest breeding habitat for the Australian Pelican.

Approximately 85 species of waterbirds have been recorded in the region including Plovers, Dotterels, Ducks, Swan, Cape Barren Geese and Ibis.

The Coorong provides invaluable habitat and feeding sites for birds that have travelled from China, Japan and Siberia.

Red-necked Stints are tiny birds that migrate annually from breeding grounds in the Arctic, approximately 15,000km for a one way journey.

Red-necked stints and other migratory birds can be seen feeding on the tidal flats in the Summer months.
