Discover Our Lakes : Your Local Guide
We live it, you’ll love it
Raymond Island & the Koalas
Five minutes from the resort, the flat- bottomed ferry crosses the McMillan Strait to Raymond Island home to one of Australia's healthiest wild koala populations. Walk or cycle the Koala Trail (bring your camera), and keep an eye out for echidnas and kangaroos. The ferry is free for pedestrians and cyclists. Go early morning for the best sightings.
The Paynesville Esplanade
A short, flat stroll from the resort, the Esplanade is Paynesville's waterfront heart cafés, a bakery worth planning your morning around, fish and chips by the water, and boats coming and going all day. Sunset from the foreshore is a nightly event.
Fishing the Lakes
The Gippsland Lakes are one of Victoria's great fisheries bream, flathead, tailor and more. Fish from our private jetty, hire a boat in town, or book a local charter. Clean your catch at the resort's fish cleaning station and cook it on the BBQ that evening.
Silt Jetties & Mitchell River
Just past Eagle Point, the Mitchell River silt jetties are among the longest in the world a remarkable drive or ride with water on both sides. One of East Gippsland's quiet wonders.
Ninety Mile Beach
Forty minutes from the resort, one of the longest uninterrupted beaches on earth. Wild, beautiful and often almost empty the perfect day-trip contrast to the calm of the lakes.
