Things to Do

* The track network allows visitors to explore the park on a variety of short or long walks. Walkers intending to try part or all of the Wilderness Coast Walk need to obtain a permit from Parks Victoria.

* Rivers and inlets offer the safest swimming, but beware of strong currents near entrance areas.

* Fishing is permitted in the park. A Recreational Fishing Licence is required for all Victorian waters.

* Some of Australia's best flat-water canoeing can be enjoyed on the rivers and inlets of the park.

* The park's variety of flora and fauna make it excellent for all aspects of nature studies and photography.
