Overview

Lake Bunga Beach is a kitesurfing spot located in East Gippsland, Victoria, between Lakes Entrance and Lake Tyers Beach. This ocean beach offers exposed sailing conditions with waves and regular winds. The prevailing southwest to west winds blow side-shore on this south-facing beach. Conditions are suitable for intermediate to advanced riders due to waves and currents. The beach is long and sandy, offering space for setup. Access is via local coastal roads. The spot is relatively isolated. Watch out for rip currents and do not sail alone in this uncrowded area.
