Adelaide International Bird Sanctuary National Park - Winaityinaityi Pangkara National Park
Adelaide International Bird Sanctuary National Park - Winaityinaityi Pangkara National Park, Coastal national park in South Australia.
The sanctuary extends over 60 kilometers of coastline along Gulf St Vincent, featuring subtidal seagrass meadows, mangroves, and saltmarsh habitats.
The South Australian government established the national park in January 2017, transforming former salt production sites into protected land for migratory birds.
The name Winaityinaityi Pangkara comes from Kaurna language, reflecting the traditional ownership of Adelaide Plains by Aboriginal communities.
Visitors can access the park through St Kilda foreshore or Thompson Beach, with facilities including parking areas and designated observation points.
The sanctuary hosts 27,000 migratory birds annually as part of the East Asian-Australasian Flyway, supporting 263 different plant and animal species.
