Gamay (Botany Bay)

Gamay (Botany Bay) Comic

Gamay (Botany Bay) is a site of great Cultural and ecological significance. It is highly industrialised and urbanised, and has been extensively modified. Despite this, it contains a diverse range of natural habitats: seagrass, beaches, mangroves, salt marshes, oyster reefs, rocky shores, rocky reefs and open water. 
Ramsay-listed, Towra Point Nature Reserve is located in along the southern shore of Gamay, and is an important site demonstrating the interconnections between different habitats. It is especially important for migratory birds who feed and rest there after vast journeys, and as a critical nursery ground for fish.
