Wittelbee Conservation Park is a protected area located on the west coast of Eyre Peninsula in South Australia adjoining the headland of Wittelbee Point about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) south east of the town of Ceduna. The conservation park is classified as an IUCN Category III protected area. The following state of significance was published in 1980:

The park is significant as it contains an area of samphire swamp which is not well represented in the National Parks system. Wittelbee Conservation Park contains mallee vegetation right up to the coastal dune, fine sandy beaches and a low rocky headland. A pleasant picnicking area is utilised by the local residents and tourists.
