Starting from the Yangie Bay Campground at the end of Coffin Road, Coffin Bay National Park, this walk takes you on a circuit alongside Yangie Bay and past the Yangie Bay Lookout via the Across Yangie Island Track. Located within Coffin Bay National Park on South Australia's Eyre Peninsula, the sheltered waters of Yangie Bay offer an ideal place for canoeing and provide a spectacular backdrop to the Yangie Bay Campground, the starting point for several walking trails, accessible to all vehicles and suitable for caravans. The park is home to a wide variety of wildlife, including emus, goannas and kangaroos, as well as seabirds such as albatrosses, ospreys, petrels and white-bellied sea eagles. This hike initially follows the shoreline of Yangie Bay, then heads inland through coastal mallee to the beach adjoining Yangie Island, offering close-up views of the island. From there, the hike returns along the same route, then climbs the hill to the Yangie Bay Lookout, offering excellent views of Yangie Bay, Yangie Island, Thorny Passage Marine Park and the Marble Range. The trail features interpretive signs narrated by Heath Goanna, providing information about the area's history, flora and fauna. This loop consists of gently undulating walking trails, with some short steep hills and uneven natural surfaces, suitable for average fitness levels. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
