City/town information
Lakes Entrance, which lies almost at sea level, can be reached from Melbourne via Bairnsdale and the town of Kalimna to the northwest by a stretch of the Princes Highway, which snakes down and around a point protruding into the Gippsland Lakes known as "Jemmy's Point". Views of The Entrance and of the Lakes can be seen from various lookouts on Jemmy's Point. The Princes Highway leaves the northeast side of the town through the hilly countryside towards Nowa Nowa and Orbost. It has the largest number of inland waterways in the southern hemisphere.
The ninety-mile beach is a big tourist attraction and the various national parks of Gippsland touch the coastline of Lakes Entrance. Two of the most scenic driving routes are also a part of this region, the Great Alpine Road and The Sydney to Melbourne Coastal Drive.
Lakes Entrance is predominantly a fishing and tourism-driven town; the main beachfront is a harbour for 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 the fishing fleet and two floating restaurants—Ferryman's Seafood Cafe and The Floating Dragon Dockside Restaurant. The main street consists of shops, caravan parks, a Woolworths supermarket, a Target Country store that opened in 2007, a KFC and a McDonald's restaurant that opened in September 1997. The town's main residential areas lie farther inland.
Lakes Entrance has a number of camping and caravan parks and free camping spots in Colquhoun State Forest.

Orbost is a pleasant rural town on the river flats of the Snowy River. The town is a primarily a service centre for a district dominated by beef and dairy cattle, the grow beans and maize, and the timber industry. Orbost is essentially a one-street town with most of the town's hotels, historic buildings and businesses located on Nicholson Street which is attractive and quiet. The historic slab hut, now the visitor centre, is a reminder of the harshness of early life for European settlers in the area. There are a number of pleasant walks and cycleways which allow visitors to experience the tranquility of this rich and fertile valley.
