The Gippsland coast is home to thousands of people who live in or near one of the many coastal towns and settlements located between San Remo at the eastern end of Western Port and Mallacoota near the New South Wales border. The Gippsland coast remains in a largely natural state, being characterised by diverse natural environments, including important habitat for flora and fauna species protected by national parks, reserves and public foreshore land.

The Gippsland Coastal Board works with stakeholders in our region to protect and inform on important natural and heritage values significant to the state of Victoria and Australia.
