23. Lakes Entrance Lakes Entrance Lake Tyers Beach Lake Tyers Beach is a picturesque lakeside destination close to Lake Tyers Aboriginal Trust, a former mission settlement established in the 1860’s to house Indigenous people from around the State, forcibly removed from their homelands. The relaxed village sits within sight of the beach, on the belly of the lake, with large arms extending northward like fiery bolts of lightning. The lake is hugely popular among fishing enthusiasts, offering impressive hauls of flathead and bream. Surfers should make their way to Red Bluff, known for its excellent right and left-hand breaks along the Ninety Mile Beach. For swimmers, the calm waters of the lake provide a safer alternative, as the beach can be unpatrolled and prone to strong rips. At the end of your day, indulge in a delicious pub meal on the deck overlooking the lake—where the breathtaking views are truly unforgettable. Lake Tyers Beach invites you to explore its natural beauty while appreciating the rich cultural significance of the surrounding area. For those who prefer two wheels, the Gippsland Lakes Discovery Trail links the bush to the sea via an old tramway track that runs through the Colquhoun State Forest. Mountain-biking fanatics will love the fun single-track adventure of Colquhoun Mountain Bike Trail Park, just outside of Lakes Entrance. Be sure to visit Gunaikurnai Land and Waters Aboriginal Corporation (GLaWAC), where you can explore the Aboriginal Art Gallery showcasing local Indigenous works. The Bush Café is a perfect spot to enjoy a meal inspired by the region’s rich heritage. Lakes Tyers Beach
