Lake Tyers Camp & Caravan Park: Where the Forest Meets the Sea
Perfectly positioned on a coastal hill with breathtaking views over the Tasman Sea and the tranquil Lake Tyers, our caravan park offers a truly unique East Gippsland experience. Lake Tyers Camp & Caravan Park is a place of rest, reflection, and recreation, where the stunning natural beauty of the coastline is right on your doorstep. With a rich history of providing a welcoming retreat, our park continues to be a cherished destination for families, anglers, and anyone looking to connect with nature. The prime location provides unparalleled access to the famous Ninety Mile Beach, the sheltered lake system, the local tavern, and a general store, all just a short walk away.
We provide a range of accommodation to suit your needs, from spacious, grassy powered sites for caravans, motorhomes, and campers, to a wide variety of comfortable cabins. Many of our cabins and sites boast incredible views of the water, allowing you to watch for whales during migration season or simply enjoy a spectacular sunrise from your own deck. The park is equipped with excellent facilities, including modern and clean amenities blocks, a fully-equipped camp kitchen, free gas barbecues, a children’s playground, and a communal fire pit area, making it an ideal choice for groups and families.
The area is an adventure playground for all ages. The lake entrance, where the lake system periodically opens to the ocean, creates a dynamic environment renowned for its superb fishing. Anglers can expect to target trophy-sized Dusky Flathead, Bream, and Tailor from the beach, jetty, or a boat. The calm lake waters are perfect for kayaking and boating, with a boat ramp just a two-minute drive away. For those who prefer to stay on land, scenic walking tracks meander around the coastline, offering stunning vistas and opportunities for bird watching. After a day of exploring, the famous Waterwheel Beach Tavern is conveniently located across the road, serving up hearty meals and cold drinks in a classic Aussie pub atmosphere.
