Coastal zone
The area of Windy Harbour coastal zone was studied before it became part of the national park.[2][3]
Settlement
The history of the settlement is tied in with the forestry communities inland from the harbour[4] and the rock lobster fishing industry.[5]
The area was also the location of coastal fishing huts, which have been at times removed due to their not being approved by local authorities.[6]
