The Coorong, a national park in South Australia, is where the movie Storm Boy was filmed. Full of native birds and mammals, it extends from the mouth of the Murray River for a hundred miles southeast. It is one of the world's longest beaches, at 198 km long and an important cultural site for the Indigenous Ngarrindjeri people.
