On the far shore of the lake lies the site of the original Mallacoota township and ruins of the Lakeview Hotel (built in 1882).  After cruising the lake and viewing the birdlife on the Goodwin Sands, take a 30 minute guided walk around this historic and seldom visited. 
Wear sandals or bring a small towel as we cross a shallow creek (water depth 6 inches). Commentary and morning or afternoon tea is provided.
