Coastal wetlands are those wetlands that are within, along, or near tidally-influenced water bodies. Their source of water (hydrology) may be salt, fresh, or both (brackish). Freshwater wetlands are those wetlands whose water source (hydrology) is of fresh water (not salty or brackish) . They can be tidally influenced by freshwater tides (tidal waterways above the salt line) or may be far inland (hydrology source is usually groundwater, surface waters, or precipitation).

Coastal water ecosystems include estuaries, Lagoons and bays,Coastal creeks,marshes and transitional wetlands..........
Beavers live in wetlands because they are able to obtain the fish that they eat, from that environment.

It is difficult to give a straight answer. Despite being the driest continent on earth after Antarctica, Australia has 520 wetlands which are recognised by state authorities as being "important". Coastal and marine wetlands, which make up 161 of these recognised wetlands, make up 42% of the coastal strip. The coastal strip is roughly defined as a 3 km strip extending from marine waters inland. This coastal strip also includes very large areas of mangroves and tidal flats, mostly in northern Australia. The percentage of the coastal zone defined as wetlands varies from 64% in Northern Territory to 14% in Tasmania. There are also numerous wetlands areas inland, but many of these have dried up as a result of European settlement interrupting normal water flows. There are no readily available figures suggesting Australia's percentage of actual wetlands.
