Local Flora, Fauna and Marine Life
The City of Port Phillip is home to an amazing array of flora, fauna and marine Life which co-habits with a large, high density human population with suprising ease.
Situated beside a major shipping channel and within 5 km of a major city, the range of permanent inhabitants which call the City of Port Phillip home is extraordinary.
In addition to our permanent wildlife residents, our local area is often used as a staging post by migratory birds on their way to seasonal breeding or feeding locations.
