Lakes Entrance

城市概覽

The town has a beautiful locality - surrounded by water, lakes and kilometres of deserted ocean beaches. However, like some other "seaside destinations", the town itself can tend to be a little tacky and run down. While not often attractive to New South Welsh people, it is the closest Victoria could offer on untouched sandy beaches.

如何抵達

Lakes Entrance is on the Princes Hwy (A1). Coaches meet the trains to Bairnsdale from Melbourne Coaches down the coast from Sydney and Canberra also pass through Lakes Entrance.
