Carter Bay Conservancy was established as part of the government’s land use decision in the Central Coast planning area.
This conservancy protects an open, south-facing bay, with an extensive estuary. The southern, deeper marine areas are important for Dall’s porpoises and of moderate importance for killer and humpback whales.
