Exploring Cannon's Ceeek in Spring





Cannon's Creek is a coastal village on northern Westernport Bay, classified as an International Conservation Zone, 65 km SE of Melbourne.

It is located on the Rutherford Inlet, reached from the South Gippsland Highway, then along the Tooradin-Baxter Rd, then into Cannon's Creek Rd, to a small car park at the main jetty.

There are extensive mangroves and millions of crabs!

The Foreshore Reserve includes the main 2 km walking track, a boardwalk and lookout, with splendid views across the estuary towards the settlement of Warneet.

There are three jetties, reconstructed in 2008 by a cooperative effort between the Shire of Casey and local community groups.

A large sign at the car park dsscribes the development, fauna, flora and features of the Reserve.

I visited the Reserve on October 6, 2009

Please see the full set of Photos of my visit!
