Position on map:

The Carey Park mature Fig (Ficus macrophylla) and Paperbark (Melaleuca quinquenervia) trees are historically significant for their association with the location of the original Southport foreshore area and original sea wall path. The relationship between the trees, the sea wall and the original foreshore combine to contribute to a greater understanding of the evolution of the Southport foreshore area. The mature trees now form an important part of the Carey Park landscape and vista.
