SPring/summer SEASON:

The days grow longer and the warmth returns, the Coorong bursts into life with the vibrancy of spring and summer. Wildflowers bloom across the dunes, brightening the sandy landscapes, while the lagoons shimmer under clear skies and golden light. Migratory shorebirds arrive in their thousands from the northern hemisphere, feeding and roosting on the sandflats, adding movement and energy to the waterways.

The warmer season also brings renewed activity along the coastline, dolphins surf the estuary currents, fish stir in the shallows, and pelicans glide overhead in effortless formation. It’s a time when the Coorong feels alive and abundant, a living sanctuary of wildlife and colour.

With balmy breezes, long afternoons, and the ever-changing play of light on water and sand, spring and summer are the perfect seasons to explore, learn, and soak in the natural wonder of this unique landscape on the Fleurieu Peninsula.
