Clyak Estuary Conservancy was established as a part of government’s land use decision in the Central Coast planning area.
The conservancy is a series of wetlands forming the Clyak River Estuary that is located at the head of Moses Inlet, which branches off of the north side of Rivers Inlet. This major coastal estuary is important habitat for trumpeter swans and western grebes, and is used by grizzly bears and juvenile salmon.

356 hectares – 288 hectares of upland and 68 hectares of foreshore
