    Cullendulla Beach erosion

    Cullendulla Beach is changing shape from the impacts of coastal erosion.

    During high tide, walking access via the beach into Cullendulla Creek Nature Reserve from the carpark on Myamba Parade may be restricted by the ocean.

    While in the reserve, visitors should continue to monitor conditions and time their walk with a lower tide.

    Tide predictions for Batemans Bay are found on the Bureau of Meteorology website.

About

Right beside Cullendulla Beach, the Mangrove walk is the only one of its kind in the entire area. Raised boardwalks thread through the marine park sanctuary zone of Cullendulla Creek.

At low tide, Australian white ibises forage in the sand here, while large groups of solider crabs march back and forth. The track also passes swamp oak forest, an endangered ecological community. Bring some binoculars and take advantage of the bench seats along the way for a round of birdwatching.

Signs along the walk help you get the most out of any visit, highlighting features like the unusual dune formations called ‘cheniers.’ These scenic ridges contain a staggering 7,000 years of shoreline changes stored in their sand.
