Ratings: CP *** Surroundings ***



Evening and the everchanging colours and moods of Lake Albert in the Coorong with its abundance of birdlife . It is a shallow fresh water lake, 25 kilometres long, between 7 and 14 kilometres wide with an average depth of 1.5 metres. It was named after Queen Victoria's consort, Prince Albert. Coorong is derived from the Aboriginal word 'Karangh' meaning 'narrow neck'. The Coorong stretches 150 kilometres from the mouth of the River Murray near Goolwa to  just beyond Salt Creek and is the breeding ground for a variety of waterbirds.
