Coorong
The Coorong is a unique coastal lagoon system located in South Australia, stretching approximately 140 kilometers along the southeastern coastline. It is formed by a series of shallow, saltwater lagoons separated from the Southern Ocean by a narrow strip of land known as the Coorong National Park. This area is rich in biodiversity, providing habitat for various bird species and marine life.
The Coorong is significant for its ecological and cultural value, attracting tourists and researchers alike. It is a vital site for Aboriginal heritage, with the Ngarrindjeri people having lived in the region for thousands of years. The area is also important for recreational activities such as fishing, boating, and birdwatching.
