Media Island Conservation Park is a protected area in the Australian state of South Australia located in the Riverland in the gazetted locality of Loxton about 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) north-east of the Loxton town centre.[4]

The conservation park is located on Media Island in the Murray River adjacent to section 172 in the cadastral unit of the Hundred of Gordon. [4][1] It was constituted under the Crown Lands Act 1929 on 4 July 1968 as a fauna conservation reserve. [1] In 1972, it was constituted as a conservation park upon the proclamation of the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972 on 27 April 1972.[5] As of July 2016, the conservation park covered an area of 2 hectares (4.9 acres).[2]

As of 1994, it and the Kapunda Island and Rilli Island conservation parks have been managed in conjunction with the Murray River National Park.[6]

The conservation park is classified as an IUCN Category III protected area.[3]
