65% of the Noosa Everglades' catchment is set within national parks. More than 40% of Australia's bird species are found here.

Is it safe to swim in Noosa Everglades?
Because there are no crocodiles or alligators, the Noosa Everglades is the only place in the world where swimming is safe, unlike its Floridian equivalent. The Noosa Everglades are a network of mirrored lakes, old marshes, and black tannin-stained waterways that stretch over 60 km.
