The Goat Island Restoration Site lies approximately mid-section along the southern shoreline of Goat
Island. The site is shoreward of the main boating channel and sites on a large sand bank that extends
along the entire length of Goat Island.
The site avoids public moorings and marine habitats, and these are excluded with minimum distances.
The site is within the declared fish habitat (A) management area.
The shoreline is a patchy and narrow fringing mangrove forest between coastal rainforest communities
dominated by grey mangrove (Avicennia marina). Canopy height of 4 to 6 m. Forest extends to a large
low canopy forest to the north-east of the island, away from the restoration site. The mangroves in this
reach are in good condition.
Well sorted sand sub-tidally and no epifaunal invertebrates were recorded on the surface of the
unvegetated habitats. There was typically a low density of burrows observed in most reaches.
Mangroves and seagrass are excluded from the site. No impact to the mangroves and seagrass is
expected.
