It lies north of the Sunset Coast and Turquoise Coast. In the early 1990s, maps of the coast included the main place on the coast as Geraldton, with Kalbarri as the northernmost location, and Jurien and Cervantes at the southern end.[1]
In 2001 it had considerable planning for the strategies for conservation and management of the coast.[2][3][4]
