Wonboyn Lake is a tidal lake situated at the south-east tip of New South Wales in Australia. The nearest commercial centre is the town of Eden. Wonboyn River is classed as a barrier river with an intermittently closed entrance.
Water quality is monitored by NSW Department of Planning, Industry and Environment.Wonboyn Lake winds a 10-kilometre course before it meets a fairly narrow channel into the sea at
Disaster Bay. The lake is renowned for its huge flathead and catches of bream, luderick, whiting, jewfish, trevally and tailor. From
the beach, tailor, bream, salmon and whiting are all rewarded to the angler. The backwaters of the lake are dotted with oyster leases, fresh from the lake right on to your plate. There is a
boat ramp,
picnic area and accommodation options are all available.You can find a small yet secluded
picnic area at both ends of
Disaster Bay called Greenglades & Baycliff. These two locations are renowned for fishing and that elusive trout can be yours for the eating. The local store can provide bait & fishing supplies as
well as a wealth of local knowledge on the most desirable fishing locations. Best discovered by boat as you enter the lake mouth, sandy shoals and channels open to rolling surf and untouched beaches where dingos, dolphins and deserted sand hills can all be discovered.
