Overview

Explore stunning lakes and waterways in Gippsland. Take to the Gippsland Lakes for aquatic adventures; swim and fish in pristine waters off sandy white beaches, and head inland to hear the roar of tumbling waterfalls.

Gippsland Lakes

The largest network of inland waterways in Australia, the spectacular Gippsland Lakes are ideal for aquatic adventures and ardent relaxing. Skipper the lakes on a chartered yacht or cruiser, hit the water on skis, with paddles, or simply dip a toe in. Nature lovers, cruise boats will take you on tours to see rare dolphins, and out to island homes of koalas, seals and myriad water birds.

Anglers, cast a line from hotspots near Paynesville, Metung and Lakes Entrance for exceptional lake fishing. Or simply sit by the shores and join legions of lake enthusiasts for waterfront wining, dining and sunset viewing.

Waterfalls

Follow fern-laden inland paths to watch waterfalls tumble and cascade amid forests of towering gums. Venture into the Strezlecki Ranges to see the highest single span falls in Victoria, Agnes Falls. Just a short drive from Noojee, visit the Toorongo Falls Reserve to wander between the tranquil Amphitheatre Falls and its impressive neighbour, Toorongo Falls.
