    Lake Colac Cafe

    March 18, 2021 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C

    First trip in our new(ish) car and it was a pleasure. Little Ace all boxed up in the back and managed to stay clean the whole trip.
    This little cafe was in the Colac Botanical Gardens and it had a majestic outlook onto the lake.

    Lake Colac, a freshwater lake of the Western District Lakes, is located north of the Colac town centre in Victoria, Australia.

    A yacht club and rowing club are located adjacent to the lake's shore. During the summer months, water skiers have access to the lake's facilities, and many birds may be found on the lake's surface and in the area.
    The foreshore has a playground, boat ramp and the Colac Botanical Gardens.

    In January 2009, the lake dried up after years of drought, and the first time in 173 years.

    In April 2016 the lake dried up after several years of drought.
