Paradise Beach Campground – Gippsland Lakes Coastal Park (CG)

This is one of several camp grounds located within the Gippsland Lakes Coastal Park.

The western section of the Park has two distinct types of camping – coastal camping with ready access to the beach (Shoreline Drive Campgrounds 1-19 and Paradise Beach Campground), and bush camping a short drive to Lake Victoria and Lake Wellington (Red Bluff and Spoon Bay). Most sites provide for Tents, Camper trailers and Campervans, with limited sites that provide for Caravans and larger motorhomes. Dogs permitted in areas west of Loch Sport and around Paradise Beach and Golden Beach to The Honeysuckles.

The tranquil Gippsland Lakes are a system of coastal lagoons separated from the Tasman Sea by the coastal dunes of the Ninety Mile Beach. Seven rivers terminate at the lakes – the Latrobe, Avon, Nicholson, Tambo, Mitchell, Macalister and Thomson rivers. A favourite holiday destination for many Victorians, days can easily be filled with a range of activities on the water or on dry land.
