Dee Why Headland/Escarpment

Page Updated: December 20, 2007

 

Dee Why Escarpment

Dee Why Escarpment is dominated by a coastal heath community typically associated with Hawkesbury sandstone.

A section of the Bicentennial Coastal Walkway - which stretches from Manly to Palm Beach - passes through the area and is heavily used.

Past activities such as clearing for residential development, dumping, overflowing stormwater, removing tree and native tubestock and unregulated entry have contributed to the degraded condition of the vegetation.

Professional and volunteer bush regenerators have worked on Dee Why Headland since 1991. Bush regeneration targets declared noxious and environmental weeds on the headland and escarpment, and the area around the North Curl Curl Surf Clubt.

Professional Bush Regenerators liaise with reserve users, residential neighbours and interest groups to educate and gain co-operation in the management of the reserve.
