    Notice of 1080 ground baiting program

    NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) is conducting an ongoing ground baiting program from Tuesday 21 July 2026 to Monday 21 December 2026. The operation will use 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) poison for the control of foxes.

    The program will take place in:

    - Comerong Island Nature Reserve

    - Conjola National Park

    - Meroo National Park

    - Murramarang National Park

    - Narrawallee Creek Nature Reserve

    - Seven Mile Beach National Park.

    The program is designed to minimise predator impacts on wildlife, especially nesting threatened shorebird species.

    Signs will be placed at the entry to the baiting location. Domestic pets are not permitted in NSW National Parks managed lands. Pets and working dogs may be affected (1080 is lethal to cats and dogs). Pets and working dogs must be restrained or muzzled in the vicinity and must not enter the baiting location. In the event of accidental poisoning seek immediate veterinary assistance.

    Penalties apply for non-compliance. For further information call the NPWS Nowra area office on 02 4428 6300.

About

Visitors to Murramarang National Park can discover the hidden gem of Snake Bay, a breathtaking and secluded beach perfect for those seeking a peaceful coastal escape. Accessible only via the scenic Pretty Beach to Pebbly Beach Walk, this 5.6‑kilometre return track invites travellers to immerse themselves in the region's natural beauty. Along the way, walkers pass through lush rainforest gullies, wander across pristine, untouched beaches, and enjoy the calming sounds of the ocean. As access to Snake Bay is tide-dependent, visitors are encouraged to check conditions before setting out.

The walk can begin at the Pebbly Beach carpark on Mount Agony Road, which is easily reached from the Princes Highway at East Lynne—making it a convenient addition to any South Coast itinerary.

Whether they are seeking solitude, stunning scenery, or a memorable nature walk, visitors will find Snake Bay offers a truly unique and rewarding experience.
