Mangrove Board Walk

Explore | Currambene Creek | An Outdoor Adventure

Get adventurous without getting your feet wet! Our 1.4km Mangrove Boardwalk has just received a full refurbishment, which means it’s even easier to get up close to the mangroves, birds, and sea creatures living in this beautiful patch of marine sanctuary. Watch out for crabs, pelicans, and fish – you might even see a stingray!

Did you know that the lighthouse tower here at the Museum is halfway between Cape St George and Crookhaven Heads?

This very lantern holds a deep & fascinating story.
