The last initiation was held in this area around 1920. This area is rich in cultural heritage to the Gumbaynggirr people.
Jagun Nature Reserve was purchased under the Coastal Lands Protection Scheme and gazetted in 1999. The reserve covers 100 hectares and is approximately one kilometre north of Valla Nature Reserve. The creek bed of Oyster Creek forms the north-western boundary of the reserve. Part of the inlet to Oyster Creek also lies within the reserve. The corridor of the North Coast Railway Line forms the south-western boundary. The eastern boundary of the reserve runs along the mean high water mark of North Valla Beach.
