This 3.4 acre reserve adjoining the railway trail in Hamilton Parish includes a rocky coastline with tide pools, an inland valley with a brackish pond, and a wooded hillside.
Eve’s Pond was purchased in 2008 and work to restore it as a public nature reserve began in 2019. The site of the original pond was heavily wooded with casuarinas and other invasive species. These were removed and the pond was re-excavated, leaving a small islet for nesting birds. A magnificent hide with a guide to all the birds likely to be spotted at the pond was kindly funded by Eddie Wright in memory of his wife Yvonne.
Eve’s Pond Nature Reserve was opened to the public on Earth Day in 2022.
