Boat Hire
Take the helm and explore the lakes your own way. Local Paynesville boat hire companies offer everything from tinnies for a morning's fishing to comfortable cruisers for a full day on the water and our jetty means you can moor right outside your apartment. Ask our team for our recommended local operators.

Raymond Island Ferry & Koalas
Five minutes from the resort, the Raymond Island ferry crosses the McMillan Strait to one of the best places in Australia to see wild koalas. Walk or cycle the Koala Trail mornings are best.
