Directions: The reserve is located at the end of Main Road, Wellington Point where there is ample parking with public facilities and a cafe, though note that it can be very busy at weekends, particularly in the summer months.
Both coastal sides of the Wellington Point Reserve are worth spending some time wandering around and can offer up some nice surprises now and then.
Making sure the tides are in your favour and definitely avoiding incoming tides; the walk out along the sandbar and the immediately adjacent mudflats to King Island (and some distance beyond at low tide) is always good for waders, gulls, terns and some water birds. The small casuarina and mangrove clad King Island itself commonly has Brahminy Kites nesting during their breeding season plus resident Mangrove Honeyeaters.
