Myall Lakes National Park is a national park in New South Wales, Australia, 188 kilometres (117 mi) northeast of Sydney. It surrounds the scenic Myall Lakes, and includes Broughton Island.

History

The Worimi Aboriginal people had inhabited the Myall Lakes National Park land area for it's abundance of natural resources. These natural resources had offered a traditional hunter-gatherer lifestyle for the Worimi people. The park includes important spiritual sites that are an important part of the identity of local Aboriginal people. Dark Point Aboriginal Place served as a location for the Worimi people to gather together for ceremonies and feasts and has been of significance to Worimi people for at least 4000 years. ^[1]

Environment

Myall Lakes National Park incorporates a patchwork of freshwater lakes, the ocean, islands, native flora, dense littoral rainforest and beaches. The lakes support a large variety of birds including bowerbirds, white-bellied sea eagle and tawny frogmouths. ^[2]

Native Fauna which can also be seen in the park includes the nocturnal long-nosed bandicoot which has grey-brown fur and a pointed snout for which it uses to forage for worms and insects. The Striped marsh frog can be found near ponds and swamps and has a distinct sound which can be heard all year round. ^[3]
