Wish we could have stayed longer but we made the most of our two nights with a wonderful BBQ out on the decking. The place was peaceful, clean and kitchen was very well equipped. Lots of space but still managed to feel very cosy and welcoming. Excellent communication from our hosts - thanks again and if we’re in the area in the future, we’ll be sure to return!
Information
Location & Nearby Attractions
A tranquil drive along the ambling Tambo River leads you to the idyllic waterside village. Set at the end of a peninsula, Metung is almost completely surrounded by the waters of Lake King and Bancroft Bay. Sumptuous 360 degree waterfront views and gently bobbing boats resting in the marina nourish the soul. Welcome to your state of zen.
Eat and Drink
Metung is small is size, but big on quality when it comes to food and drink outlets. Start the day with a relaxed brunch at Hamptons-style Aroma Café, whose healthy breakfast bowls will bring a pop of colour to your morning.
Across the road, the Metung Café and Bakery offers so much more than fresh bread – with a range of dumplings and banh-mi that’s sure to impress. Meanwhile, Effloresce Metung delivers an ever evolving range of unique and delicious cakes. The Local takes thin crust woodfired pizza to the next level with local ingredients including Snowy River Black Garlic and Flooding Creek Fungi. And at the end of the day, you simply cannot beat the waterfront views from the Metung Hotel.
Walking
Take a picturesque stroll around the edge of Bancroft Bay (with a rod, bait and tackle, if you like) along the Metung Boardwalk, taking in Legend Rock, a meteorite entrenched in Gunaikurnai mythology.
Follow the banks of the creek along Boxes Creek Walking Trail to get the heart pumping. Keep a watch out for sea eagles and kingfishers.
Visit Travel Victoria for more information.
Fishing
Metung is the stuff of dreams for boating and fishing enthusiasts. With easy access boat ramps, jetties, mooring facilities, bait shops and boat charter, the small town enthusiastically caters to those wanting to get onto the water.
90 Mile Beach
From the shallow inlets near Port Albert to the wide open waterways of Lakes Entrance lies the Ninety Mile Beach – a 90-mile long stretch of pristine golden sand that separates the Gippsland Lakes from Bass Strait.
This is one of the most natural and unspoilt beaches in the world and is ideal for any number of beach activities from beach fishing and swimming to walking, whale and dolphin-spotting or just lazing in the sun.

Buchan Caves Reserve

Kangaroos lay about the campground and visitor centre while native birds such as the Bell Miner, Powerful Owl, Superb Lyrebird and Pied Currawong can be seen perched among the trees.
