'The Jawbone': valuable, intact mangrove and samphire plant community, protected for many decades by the Rifle Range formerly on the land behind it. A Major PPCC Inc. Campaign against a marina for that land succeeded in 1988. The adjoining sea became a State Marine Sanctuary in 2002. See National Estate ID 7716.

 

It is within 10 km of central Melbourne, WILLIAMSTOWN. The mouth of the Kororoit Creek is to the left, just outside the picture.
