Younghusband Peninsula, Coastal peninsula in South Australia.
The 110-kilometer long peninsula separates the Coorong Channel and Coorong from the Southern Ocean, with its width ranging from 350 meters to 3 kilometers.
The peninsula received its name from William Younghusband, who served as an Australian politician during the colonial period of South Australia.
Local Aboriginal communities have maintained connections to this land, incorporating the peninsula's natural resources into their traditional practices for generations.
Visitors can access the peninsula through the Coorong National Park, where permits are required for vehicle entry and camping activities.
The peninsula forms part of a continuous coastal dune system extending from Goolwa to Kingston SE, spanning over 110 kilometers of Australian coastline.
