Long Island

Long Island is a river island in New South Wales situated within a network of waterways and protected natural areas. The island features distinct habitats where land and aquatic ecosystems meet and interact.

The island was added to Australia's National Heritage List to protect its ecological and historical significance. This recognition ensures the long-term preservation of its natural and cultural values.

The island holds meaning for Aboriginal communities as part of their ancestral connection to waterways in this region. Visitors can sense this heritage through the landscape and the life it supports.

Visiting is best done through guided tours that focus on observing native wildlife while following conservation guidelines. Check access conditions and optimal timing in advance to make the most of your visit.

The island functions as a transition zone where two ecosystems overlap and support species found nowhere else along pure land or water habitats. This boundary location makes it valuable for nature observation.
