Features

The reserve has a variety of different vegetation communities, such as exposed headlands, dry eucalyptus woodland, wet and dry heathland. Two small littoral rainforest patches remain, they are floristically similar to those at Sea Acres National Park not far to the north.^[3] There is speculation that the extremely rare Scented Acronychia grows at Kattang.^[4] Perpendicular Point has cliffs that descend 40 metres (130 ft) suddenly to the sea below. Bushwalking is popular, particularly in late winter and early spring when the abundant wildflowers are in season.
