About Deep Creek Conservation Park
The largest conservation park on the Fleurieu Peninsula, [Deep Creek](/au/places/sa/deep-creek) protects rugged coastal cliffs, dense native mallee scrub, and dramatic valleys that drop to secluded beaches on the Southern Ocean. The park is a stronghold for southern brown bandicoots, pygmy possums, and southern hairy-nosed wombats. It is also one of the best places on the mainland to see whales from shore (June–October).
