Scenic cruises - Gippsland

In Gippsland there are some great opportunities for scenic cruising. The Gippsland Lakes, surrounded by national parks, towns and farmland, and with the Ninety Mile Beach just over the sand dunes, offer a variety of sights to take in. For those who prefer to explore the lakes system themselves, hiring a cruiser is a perfect choice. Spend the time on the water, or tie up to a jetty or moor on a beach and explore the area's towns and surrounding bushland.
