Leven Beach Conservation Park is a protected area located on the north coast of the lower part of Yorke Peninsula about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) west north-west of Point Turton. The conservation park was proclaimed in 1988 for the purpose of conserving ‘sheoak woodland and potentially provides habitat for a nationally endangered species of butterfly, the Yellowish Sedge-skipper Butterfly’. The conservation park is classified as an IUCN Category III protected area. Since 1999, the conservation park has been located within the boundaries of the gazetted localities of Point Souttar and The Pines.
