Edwards Point, Nature reserve near St Leonards, Victoria, Australia
Edwards Point extends as a 4-kilometer sand spit between Swan Bay and Port Phillip Bay on the eastern end of Bellarine Peninsula.
The Edwards Point Wildlife Reserve received official protection status in March 1971 to safeguard the last coastal woodland on Bellarine Peninsula.
The reserve functions as a research location for scientists and naturalists who study the native bird populations and migration patterns.
Visitors can access multiple walking trails throughout the reserve, with parking facilities available near the entrance points for convenient exploration.
The reserve contains intertidal mudflats that support four wader species, including grey plover and Pacific golden plover, representing over 1% of their Australian population.
