Baffle Creek is one of Queensland’s few remaining undisturbed coastal rivers, and the creek’s estuary mouth is protected by Mouth of Baffle Creek Conservation Park. This small coastal remnant is only accessible at low tide and features sandy beaches backed by low, open, eucalypt and she-oak woodlands with a camping area set behind the fore dunes on the creek’s northern shore. There is no camping area on the creek’s southern side.

The park protects a variety of habitats ranging from estuarine mangroves to coastal she-oaks and low open woodlands with acacias and eucalypts. Birdlife abounds and this is a peaceful retreat for self-sufficient visitors.
