Lake Barracoota is a small, freshwater lake nestled within Croajingolong National Park along Victoria's remote Wilderness Coast in far east Gippsland. Tucked into a stunning coastal wilderness setting, this lake sits roughly four hours north of the coastal village of Mallacoota and is accessible only on foot, making it one of the more secluded and pristine fishing destinations in Victoria. The surrounding landscape is characterised by coastal heathland, dense native bush, and the wild, rugged terrain of one of Australia's most celebrated national parks. The lake's walk-in-only nature means fishing pressure is exceptionally low, and the environment remains largely undisturbed — a rare quality that appeals to anglers seeking solitude alongside their sport.
