You'll find 90 miles of golden coastline, ivory white sand that squeaks underfoot, pebbly beaches, secret coves and everything in between, along the hundreds of kilometres of pristine Gippsland coastline.

We have brag-worthy beaches that everyone knows about (for good reason), and hidden gems off-the-beaten-track that are waiting to be discovered.

There are beaches for young families, beaches for kitesurfing and beaches for cricket. Beaches with lighthouses, beaches with shipwrecks and even dinosaur footprints.

From Cape Conran to Cape Paterson, Gabo Island to Raymond Island, make a beeline for Gippsland's stunning coastline.

If you fancy a dip, always remember to seek out patrolled beaches, and make sure you swim between the flags.
