East Gippsland

South East Victoria comprises a region stretching from the border with New South Wales and following the coastal belt down to Western Port and Phillip Island in the south.

This area is all about lakes, rivers and beaches. No highrise, no beachfront development, just untouched wilderness.

A fisherman's paradise in either freshwater or ocean. This is also boating country. Canoes, paddleboats, hobycats, runabouts, charter vessels, live-aboard yachts and cruisers.

Lakes Entrance - a very popular holiday destination. Warm winters and mild summers. Fishing in the lakes, rivers and ocean. Hire boats, catamarans, windsurfers, canoes, jet skis plus every imaginable form of water fun or transport.

Bairnsdale - the largest centre of the lakes area. Junction of the Princes Highway along the coast and the Omeo Highway turning inland towards the high country. A sensible location for those wanting to combine coast and country.

Traralgon - originally a rest stop for gold miners passing through. Now a major paper and pulp centre and the focus of Victoria's energy industry. Remnants of the gold rush architecture are still visible in the town. Loy Yang power station to the south is one of Australia's biggest engineering ventures.

Sale, Morwell and Moe are also in this interesting region of Victoria.
