  • Follow the lake’s edge on the Entrance to the Lakes Walk, along the well-trodden path, to view the meeting of lakes and the Southern Ocean.
  • Set out on a boat to reach remote locations like Gabo Island, off the coast of Mallacoota, or cruise to Croajingolong Park’s Tamboon Inlet where you can pitch a tent at the exclusive Peachtree Creek Reserve Campground, only reachable by boat.
  • Head off-road, on the Wingan Mallacoota Scenic Drive, decorated with beaches famed as some of the region’s finest, offering four wheel enthusiasts an adventurous alternate route to Mallacoota from Cann River.
