Friends of Narrabeen Lagoon Catchment’s mission is to seek the permanent environmental protection of the remaining bushland in the Catchment area of Narrabeen Lagoon.
Garigal National Park is the only area in the catchment that has permanent environmental protection. This National Park is only 17% of the catchment area: most of the remaining land is privately owned including the Metropolitan Local Aboriginal Land Council.
Only small areas are under the control of the NSW State Government or Northern Beaches Council.
A large area is owned by Metropolitan Local Aboriginal Land Council.
After years of lobbying: on 1/4/2014 the Narrabeen Lagoon State Park was declared and in May 2017 the Park was extended. This State Park includes the whole of the Narrabeen Lagoon and some small areas of land adjacent to the Lagoon.
Can you help us achieve bushland protection?
We would welcome your membership.
