Eucla
National
Park
Tucked
away
in
the
south-east
corner
of
Western
Australia,
against
the
head
of
the
Great
Australian
Bight
is
the
3,340ha
Eucla
National
Park.
The
Park's
most
significant
features
are
the
vast
Delisser
Sandhills
and
Wilson
Bluff,
a
high
limestone
cliff
which
provides
inspiring
view of
the
awesome
coastal
cliffs
beginning
at
Eucla
and
continuing
unbroken
for
hundreds
of
kilometres
to
the
east.
The
Park's
flora
is
mallee
scrub
and
heathland,
typical
of
the
local
coastline.
Several
interesting
plants
occur
in
the
Park.
Visitors
may
also
see
whales,
seals
and
albatrosses
from
the
Park's
ocean
front.
The

but

only
10
minutes
drive
from the
Eucla
townsite.
