Gday Sailor or is it Hello Sailor
We are just keeping it secret . There are some beautiful places to stop.Just take a leasurely drive from Nowra to Lakes Entrance.

IMHO this is the best part of Australia.

Corringle Foreshore Reserve near Orbost/Marlo is a superb place to camp.

Paynesville
Raymon Island
Lake Tyers
Venus Bay
Inverloch

The waterways are superb, great if you have a boat.

If your budget will stretch hire a hoseboat at Metung for a few days.

Hi Sailor (?),

We spent a little time at Banksia Bluff, part of the Cape Conran Coastal Park earlier this year, a great place. Access via Orbost/Marlo or from Bemm River and drive through the forest.
Excellent beach, great walks etc.
This really is a great part of Vic.
Rgds,
Rob.

Thanks for those replies, I'll follow them up. !!!

Wingan Inlet is lovely. Walks, swimming, fishing, surf beach, river, boating, wildlife (seals, monitors, wallabies, etc, including sand flies sometimes, unfortunately).

Bemm River
Wingan Inlet
Mueller River
Thurra River
Marlo
and many more great spots.

Guys, stop giving it away.
We love the place and have travelled exstensively throughout the area several times a year for the past 6 or so years.
Now that it's up here, I may as well continue.
Wingan Inlet and Thurra River are great but terrible during Christmas and Easter holidays.
Lake Tyers - Pettmans Beach (on the opposite side of the lake mouth to the town itself) is a great fishing spot. You can camp down there but be prepared for sand flies etc. The camp area is not the prettiest going but it's more for the fishing (Salmon/Gummy off the beach).
