Parry Lagoons Nature Reserve

Parry Lagoons

A Ramsar wetland near Wyndham, where large numbers of waterbirds gather in the dry season. It has a birdhide and boardwalks.

Parry Lagoons lies southeast of Wyndham, near the Kununurra–Wyndham road, and forms part of the Ord River floodplain, a Ramsar wetland. In the dry season the water recedes, and large numbers of magpie geese, spoonbills, storks and migratory waterbirds gather. Marsh Lagoon has a birdhide and boardwalks. Nearby are the remains of a huge boab tree known as the “Prison Tree.” Dirt sections of the road can be impassable after rain, and there are crocodiles in the water, so never swim here.
