Ballina Nature Reserve is a wetland that contains mangroves, swamp sclerophyll forest and saltmarsh. A large colony of flying foxes roosts in the Reserve and other threatened fauna species have been recorded.
The Reserve also contains at least one Aboriginal site, and the drains that traverse the Reserve may be of historic importance. Due to its swampy nature and frequent inundation after heavy rainfall, recreational use of the Reserve is minimal.
