Coorong Lagoon

The Coorong Lagoon is a long, narrow body of water located along the southern coast of Australia, forming part of the Murray-Darling Basin. It consists of tidal saltwater and freshwater wetlands that support diverse plant and animal life, including migratory birds, fish, and aquatic plants. The lagoon is important for its ecological health, providing habitat, breeding grounds, and natural filtration. Its unique environment is influenced by seasonal rains and river flow, making it a vital site for conservation, tourism, and study of coastal and wetland ecosystems.
