Sea Acres National Park, Coastal rainforest park in Port Macquarie, Australia.
Sea Acres National Park is a protected forest spanning 76 hectares of coastal rainforest located in Port Macquarie. An elevated boardwalk winds through the dense vegetation, providing safe passage above the natural ground.
The location began as a nature reserve and became a national park in 2010. This change in status brought stronger protection to the coastal ecosystems found throughout New South Wales.
Aboriginal guides share knowledge about how native plants were traditionally used for food and medicine on this land. These specialized tours help visitors understand the deep connection between Indigenous people and the rainforest ecosystem.
An information center and cafe are located within the park grounds, along with guided tour options for those wanting deeper insight. Early morning walks offer the best chance to observe wildlife and experience fewer crowds.
Over 100 bird species live here, including fruit-doves with distinctive crowned heads that flutter among the upper branches. Visitors are often surprised by this remarkable variety when they thought they would only see common forest birds.
