On World Wetlands Day 2020 enjoy breakfast by the Bay while learning about Moreton Bay’s internationally significant Ramsar wetlands and Marine Park.

These wetlands sustain many species of endangered shorebirds as well as providing important habitats for dugongs, turtles and other marine life.

Other wildlife in this area includes koalas who seem to enjoy Cleveland’s sea breezes and coastal views. Many people get to see their first koala in the wild during a short guided walk around G.J. Walter Park and nearby streets.
