Croajingolong National Park

Croajingolong National Park is a protected coastal wilderness area in far eastern Victoria, Australia, known for its long beaches, coastal heath, dune systems and temperate rainforest pockets. It conserves a continuous stretch of largely undeveloped coastline and adjoining inland habitats.

The park’s highlights include long sandy beaches, secluded inlets and a mosaic of coastal vegetation types that support diverse birdlife and marine fauna. The wilderness coastline and inland walking routes are popular with multi‑day walkers, birdwatchers and sea‑kayakers seeking remote natural settings.

The park protects landscapes shaped by coastal processes and river systems, and it is recognised for both ecological value and scenic integrity. Management emphasises low‑impact recreation and conservation of the park’s intact coastal systems.

Croajingolong lies on Victoria’s far eastern coastline in East Gippsland, bordering the Tasman Sea; the nearest small towns for park entry and services are in the Mallacoota region.

• Wilderness values: Designated as a largely intact coastal wilderness with extensive temperate rainforests, dunes and estuaries forming a continuous natural corridor.
• Access and remoteness: Nearest small towns for access and supplies are Mallacoota (just over the border in Victoria) and other East Gippsland communities; sections of the park are remote and require self-sufficiency for multi‑day trips.
