ABOUT THE COORONG
____

For over 6000 years the Coorong and lower lakes of Australia’s longest river, the mighty Murray, was one of the most densely populated areas in the Country and home to the Ngarrindjeri, the traditional custodians of the land.

Coorong is derived from the Aboriginal word, “karangk”, meaning narrow neck. A spectacular long, shallow saline lagoon stretching for 150 km, it was established as a National Park in 1966, and is in South Australia about 150 kms southeast of Adelaide.

A vast unspoiled area, the Coorong is of great importance in the Dreaming, and is renowned for its archaeological sites. It is a most significant National Park, full of Aboriginal culture, wildlife, and wonderment.

The Coorong contains wetlands of international recognition which support many endangered coastal flora and fauna. It is a sanctuary for birds, animals, and fish, attracting many migratory birds from as far away as Siberia.

An unspoiled ecosystem of fresh water and saline lakes, small islands, wetlands, large sand dunes and ocean beach. The Coorong is a truly outstanding and breathtaking National Park. A place of tranquillity, solitude and spiritual wellbeing; and the inspiration for our brand.

As it’s written, the Coorong is “a place that calms the mind, soothes the soul and appeases the senses”.
