Lakes Entrance Accommodation

Lakes Entrance is a tourist resort and fishing port in eastern Victoria. Lakes Entrance  is situated approximately 320 kilometres  east of Melbourne near a managed, man-made channel connecting the Gippsland Lakes to the Bass Strait.

Lakes Entrance is predominantly a fishing and tourism-driven town; the main beach front is a safe harbour for many major commercial fishing and recreational watersport operations. The surf beach is patrolled by the Lakes Entrance Surf Life Saving Club (SLSC)  between November and March every summer, with lifeguard patrols from late December to late January. The waterfront is populated by restaurants, shops, caravan parks. Lakes Entrance town's main residential areas lie farther inland.

Nearby major towns include Bairnsdale and Orbost. Minor towns include Swan Reach, Johnsonville, Kalimna, Nicholson, Metung and Lake Tyers.
