Dee Why Lagoon Wildlife Refuge Plan of Management

August 2002

Dee Why Lagoon Wildlife Refuge is located just behind Dee Why Beach and covers an area of approximately 77ha. The Plan consists mostly of the wildlife refuge, however it also covers James Meehan Reserve and the Dee Why Surf Life Saving Club.

The natural environment of the refuge is highly valued by the Warringah community and is protected under the National Parks and Wildlife Act and the Threatened Species Conservation Act. The close proximity of the refuge and James Meehan Reserve to a largely populated area of Warringah also make it a highly valued recreational area.
