Kellidie Bay Conservation Park is a protected area on the western coast of Eyre Peninsula covering roughly 18 square kilometers. The land features limestone ridges, black tea tree woodlands, and coastal vegetation that create different habitats across high grounds and lower coastal flats.
The area received initial protection status in 1954 and was reclassified from national park to conservation park in 1972. This change reflected a shift in how the land was managed and preserved.
