Everything about Swan Bay Victoria totally explained
Swan Bay is a shallow, 30 km² marine
embayment at the eastern end of the
Bellarine Peninsula,
Victoria, Australia. The township of
Queenscliff lies at its southern end, and
St Leonards at its northern. It is partly separated from
Port Phillip Bay by
Swan Island,
Duck Island and
Edwards Point spit. Most of it's included in the
Port Phillip Heads Marine National Park as well as being listed as a
wetland of international importance under the
Ramsar Convention as part of the Port Phillip Bay (Western Shoreline) and Bellarine Peninsula Ramsar site.
Swan Bay contains a variety of ecosystems that make it environmentally important for
waterbirds and migratory
waders. These include
saltmarsh,
intertidal mudflats and
seagrass beds. Although much of the surrounding land is
farmland, some remnant
woodland survives in the adjoining
Edwards Point Nature Reserve.
Other birds found in the region include the
Australian Pelican,
Silver Gull,
Royal Spoonbill,
Caspian and
Crested Terns,
White-fronted Chat,
Sacred Ibis,
Red-necked Stint,
Little Pied Cormorant and
Pied Oystercatcher.
