Named after the local wildlife rescuer known as the “Pelican Man”, this wharf is a fitting place to watch the Richmond River’s birdlife. A bronze pelican nearby commemorates Lance Ferris, who co-founded Australian Seabird Rescue after seeing how often pelicans were injured by discarded fishing line and hooks.
