Planned for Life

The land where The Marina Hindmarsh Island is now located, was originally barren farm land. As part of the planning and development process, great consideration was given to the importance of wetlands and bird habitats within the area. Birds now flock to the areas which have been constructed within the development. Specifically designed and created as roosting and breeding sites, these man made isles are subject to the natural variation in pond level, mimicking the cycles of wetland areas and fostering diverse eco-systems.  Over 35% of the development is designated as reserve. This, along with the one cat per household policy, exists to assist in wildlife re-emergence. These measures have been undertaken with the aim of maintaining and improving the environment in which The Marina Hindmarsh Island is set.

Further developments in the area include the intended construction of an eco friendly wetland and nature boardwalk.
