Meeting your friendly local guide at the lake edge, you'll hear stories of natural environment, flora, fauna, fires and floods (and some surprising local history!) as we wander lakeside with binoculars handy for a closer look at the abundant birdlife. Kangaroo sightings are highly likely on this walk, and lakeside is where we're most likely to see them. You might also see stingrays and fish from the lake edge. Next, via a boardwalk through the bush, you'll visit three fabulously placed look-outs with stunning vistas of lake and coast, before emerging on beautiful Conjola beach. Walks along the sea shore vary seasonally. You might see whales, dolphins, endangered beach-nesting birds (or surfers catching a break off Green Island). Walking back to the lake over the sand dunes, the tour finishes at the Boat Ramp. Your Guide will escort you back to the tour starting point - or you might want to dive straight into the lake for a swim!
