West Cape Howe National Park habitats for wildlife in the area range from low heath and srub on the infertile sand near the coast to low banksia forest, swampy areas, and tall karri and jarrah-marri forest.
West cape howe contains some superb coastline and a great variety of plants. Swamp areas in the park form a habitat for the insect-eating albany pitcher plant, and many birds. Patches of karri forest, and granite and limestone cliffs are also features of the park.
Further Information
Take care on the coast: even on calm days unpredictable surges rising from the southern ocean hundreds of kilometres away may sweep over the shore. Because the edge of the continental shelf is so close to the coast the energy of these waves is not broken up before they reach the shoreline. Don't risk being the next victim. Always watch the ocean, and stay well clear of the sea level.
