The water of the Tomaga Estuary is well mixed and generally shallow. The estuary has good water quality, extensive seagrass beds and intertidal sandflats and is permanently open to the ocean. The Tomaga Estuary has mangrove and saltmarsh areas that are in good condition and contribute to an important feeding area for fish and birds.
