Ocean Grove Nature Reserve

Ms NEVILLE: Also in mid-May I was pleased to visit the Ocean Grove Nature Reserve to mark the commencement of important upgrade works. Through the distinctive area landscape funding of $245 000 the works will include a new all-abilities drop-off parking and picnic area, a new connection path to existing tracks and upgraded information signage. Consultation, planning and now works have been the result of collaboration between Parks Victoria, traditional owners and Friends of the Ocean Grove Nature Reserve, including Peter Sullivan, Beth Ross, Barbara Spiller and Lel Shipley. The reserve is much loved by Ocean Grove locals, and with the ongoing commitment from the state government and the ‘friends of’ group, the area will be protected and enjoyed for many years to come.
