Environmental interpretive centre

A testament to our commitment to the environment is the proposed Environmental Interpretive Centre which will be located on the corner of Saltwater Promenade and Citybay Drive. This educational facility will foster a community-wide appreciation of our natural surroundings. Future Generations who grow up at Saltwater Coast won't just learn the importance of the environment, they'll live it.

Point cook coastal park

The Point Cook Marine Reserve is situated on the sandy shores of the north-western region of Port Phillip Bay and is one of the most prolific areas for marine organisms in the Bay.*

  • The Point Cook Coastal Park is joined to this marine sanctuary and surrounds Saltwater Coast. This area offers family friendly facilities that include:
  • Picnic Shelters, free electric barbecues, playgrounds, change rooms, clean toilets and numerous walking tracks to explore.
  • A beach picnic area that will offer an information centre with seasonal displays on a variety of park related issues. A 'touch tank' will provide the opportunity to take a closer look at some of the marine life found in the Point Cook area.
  • A Marine Sanctuary which is one of the last relatively unspoiled reef ecosystems in the bay and is an important feeding ground for sea birds and a refuge for marine life.
  • Hard surfaced trails will allow wheel-chair access from the beach car park to the picnic grounds and the edge of the beach.
  • Ranger patrolled parklands and lakes featuring environmentally significant wetlands and vegetation

cheetham wetlands

Nature has blessed Point Cook with a beautiful coastline of unique environmental significance. More than 190 species of birds can be seen in the Cheetham Wetlands, some migrating from New Zealand, Siberia and Alaska.  A viewing tower offers breathtaking views to the city and bay whilst overlooking the Cheetham Wetlands, which provide refuge for the birds migrating to escape the northern hemisphere winter.
