It is an event for all ages and explores the many natural wonders of our magnificent coast and marine environment. What’s more, almost all activities are FREE! Our program runs from 2nd-15th January from Piccaninnie Ponds near Port MacDonnell, through to Southend, Beachport, Cape Jaffa, Robe and Kingston. This year’s activities will again showcase the unique and diverse coastal habitats of the South East region. Bookings are essential for most activities as the numbers of places are limited. See below for booking details. Throughout this event our aim is to promote a stronger connection between people and the coast, and build a greater community awareness and appreciation of its beauty, value and fragility. With this in mind we hope that Coastal Connections leaves you inspired to join us in protecting this magnificent environment, with its diversity of native flora and fauna and rich cultural heritage. We hope that you enjoy ‘Coastal Connections’ and we look forward to meeting you at an activity soon. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION We request that all participants be sun smart and wear a hat, shirt and sunscreen for all daytime activities, and sturdy walking shoes in the bush and on the rocky shore. -
Yellabinna and Warna Manda Parks Draft Management Plan 2017
Yellabinna and Warna Manda Parks Draft Management Plan 2017 We are all custodians of the Yellabinna and Warna Manda parks, which are central to Far West Coast Aboriginal communities. Our culture is strong and our people are proud - looking after, and sharing Country. We welcome visitors. We ask them to appreciate the sensitivity of this land and to respect our culture. We want our Country to remain beautiful, unique and healthy for future generations to enjoy. Far West Coast Aboriginal people Yellabinna parks Warna Manda parks • Boondina Conservation Park • Acraman Creek Conservation Park • Pureba Conservation Park • Chadinga Conservation Park • Yellabinna Regional Reserve • Fowlers Bay Conservation Park • Yellabinna Wilderness Protection Area • Laura Bay Conservation Park • Yumbarra Conservation Park • Point Bell Conservation Park • Wahgunyah Conservation Park • Wittelbee Conservation Park Your views are important This draft plan has been developed by the Yumbarra Conservation Park Co-management Board. The plan covers five parks in the Yellabinna region – the Yellabinna parks. It also covers seven coastal parks between Head of the Bight and Streaky Bay - the Warna Manda parks. Warna Manda means ‘coastal land’ in the languages of Far West Coast Aboriginal people. Once finalised, the plan will guide the management of these parks. It will also help Far West Coast Aboriginal people to maintain their community health and wellbeing by supporting their connection to Country. Country is land, sea, sky, rivers, sites, seasons, plants and animals; and a place of heritage, belonging and spirituality. The Yellabinna and Warna Manda Parks Draft Management Plan 2017 is now released for public comment. Members of the community are encouraged to express their views on the draft plan by making a written submission. -

Habitat Types
Habitat Types The following section features ten predominant habitat types on the West Coast of the Eyre Peninsula, South Australia. It provides a description of each habitat type and the native plant and fauna species that commonly occur there. The fauna species lists in this section are not limited to the species included in this publication and include other coastal fauna species. Fauna species included in this publication are printed in bold. Information is also provided on specific threats and reference sites for each habitat type. The habitat types presented are generally either characteristic of high-energy exposed coastline or low-energy sheltered coastline. Open sandy beaches, non-vegetated dunefields, coastal cliffs and cliff tops are all typically found along high energy, exposed coastline, while mangroves, sand flats and saltmarsh/samphire are characteristic of low energy, sheltered coastline. Habitat Types Coastal Dune Shrublands NATURAL DISTRIBUTION shrublands of larger vegetation occur on more stable dunes and Found throughout the coastal environment, from low beachfront cliff-top dunes with deep stable sand. Most large dune shrublands locations to elevated clifftops, wherever sand can accumulate. will be composed of a mosaic of transitional vegetation patches ranging from bare sand to dense shrub cover. DESCRIPTION This habitat type is associated with sandy coastal dunes occurring The understory generally consists of moderate to high diversity of along exposed and sometimes more sheltered coastline. Dunes are low shrubs, sedges and groundcovers. Understory diversity is often created by the deposition of dry sand particles from the beach by driven by the position and aspect of the dune slope. -
