The Murray River flows two and a half thousand kilometres from the highlands of New South Wales and Victoria down to South Australia. It pools into the shallows of Lake Alexandrina and Lake Albert before its final departure into the Southern Ocean. Back from the mouth extends a skinny estuary separated from the ocean by the Young husband Peninsula known as the Coorong. This finger of water is 150 kilometres long and 5 kilometres across at it's widest section which narrows at times to a mere 100 metres. It is a true paradise escape for kayakers nature lovers photographers and bird watchers boasting 238 bird and 278 plant species. For thousands of years the Ngarrindjeri people inhabited the Coorong. They aptly named the region kyrangh meaning "the long neck" and the new settlers later interpreted this as the Coorong. Author Colin Thiele expressed his thoughts on the Murray/Coorong - "a benediction" horizon after horizon insulates the traveller from everything but sea sky and sand.
