East Gippsland acknowledges the Gunaikurnai, Monero and the Bidawel people as the Traditional Custodians of the land that encompasses East Gippsland Shire. We pay our respects to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people living in East Gippsland, their Elders past and present.

Waterfront wonder 

From every angle, Metung is flawless. Wake up to the gentle lake breeze welcoming a new day. Take a stroll down to the village square along the foreshore boardwalk for your double shot latte and admire the Burrunan dolphins in the Lake. The village, based at the end of a peninsula and surrounded by water, is quiet and content. You cannot help but feel yourself relax in the surroundings. 

While the main activities involve boating and fishing, Metung is also known for its scenic walks, local food, monthly farmers market and unique galleries with a coastal flair. The family will also be kept busy with family-friendly beaches, a splash park and adventure playground all located within walking distance of the village square. Make sure you enjoy the scenic drive along the Tambo River into Metung and even stop to throw a line. 

Learn how to sail or hire a boat and explore the lakes and waterways yourself. Yachts and cruisers are available to hire for overnight and extended stays, allowing visitors to tie up in some of the quiet, protected creeks and jetties that abound in the Gippsland Lakes. Take a guided cruise to learn about our unique ecosystems, marine and wildlife. Fancy a tee off with a view? The Metung Country Club offers up 18 holes of challenging play which is sure to make for a great day out.
