Description:
Part of the Coomera River catchment, Lake Coombabah is a tidal lake at the mouth of Coombabah Creek. The Coombabah wetlands are significant because they are the most southerly lake and coastal swampland representatives in the bioregion, and because the area provides significant wildlife value and refuge habitat. The conservation area includes tidal marshlands and mangroves along part of the lakes edge. The Melaleuca boardwalk allows viewing of the wildlife. The mangroves are home to frogs, crabs and fish that attract native and migratory birds. Located 8.2km (5 miles / 10 mins) from Village Roadshow Studios. The nearest airport is Gold Coast, Coolangatta (OOL) Airport. The closest POH, Gold Coast City, is 15.3km (9.5 miles / 25 mins) away.
