How we keep it special
- All plants, animals, other natural features and cultural sites are protected and must not be disturbed or removed.
- Stay on walking tracks to avoid getting lost or spreading Cinnamon Fungus. This waterborn disease kills native flora and can be carried to new areas on the soles of your shoes.
- Fishing and the taking of shellfish or crustaceans is not permitted from the shore or waters within Wilsons Promontory Marine National Park. Bait collection is not allowed anywhere in the park.
- Feeding wildlife is bad for their health. It is an offence to feed or leave food where it is accessible to wildlife. Penalties apply.

Notices Affecting Multiple Sites
Sealers Cove Walking Track closed until further notice
Wilsons Promontory National Park experienced widespread damage due to several flood and storm events in 2021. This significantly damaged many tracks including the Sealers Cove Boardwalk. A detailed engineering assessment found that the entire two kilometres of the Sealers Cove Boardwalk will need to be replaced. Planning is underway for this work, including costing the work to secure funding. Due to the extent of the damage, and complexity of the work required, Sealers Cove Walking Track will be temporarily closed.Access to Sealers Cove is still achievable via Refuge Cove, which is a 25km hike from Telegraph Saddle.
