Cape Conran Coastal Park

Cape Conran Coastal Park is a 11,700-hectare coastal reserve in East Gippsland, Victoria, between Marlo and Bemm River. Managed by Parks Victoria, it protects heathland, banksia woodland, sand dunes and rocky headlands along Bass Strait. Notable for its isolated ocean beaches, Yeerung River estuary, Banksia Bluff and East Cape, the park is valued for camping, surfing, fishing and nature-based recreation in a relatively undeveloped coastal setting.

Visitors can expect a remote coastal landscape with long sandy beaches, rocky headlands, coastal heath and banksia forest. The park centres on Banksia Bluff and Cape Conran headland with lookouts, boardwalks and walking tracks including the East Cape Boardwalk and Yeerung Gorge walk. Facilities are concentrated at Banksia Bluff campground and day-use areas. Activities focus on beach walking, surfing at East Cape and West Cape, fishing, boating from the Yeerung River boat ramp, birdwatching and camping. There are no shops within the park.
