Eubenangee Swamp National Park, Nature reserve in Cassowary Coast Regional, Australia.
Eubenangee Swamp National Park is a nature reserve in North Queensland containing mangrove forests, saltmarshes, and freshwater wetlands across a substantial area. The park protects multiple habitat types that support diverse plant and animal communities adapted to wetland conditions.
The protected area was established in 2003 to safeguard the swamp ecosystems and local wildlife. This designation marked an important step in protecting the wetland habitats of tropical North Queensland.
The park serves as a designated Important Bird Area by BirdLife International, providing critical habitat for over 190 bird species in lowland tropical rainforest.
Visitors should be aware of crocodiles in the area and take appropriate precautions while exploring. The cooler months offer the most comfortable conditions for visiting, as summer brings intense heat and higher insect activity.
The park contains seasonal swamp forests with feather palms and rare grassland communities that flourish on seasonally flooded soils. These specific conditions create a distinctive landscape found only in limited tropical wetland areas.
