Neighbourhood highlights

The township of Meningie is welcoming and friendly with craft, antique and coffee shops; everything you expect from a country town. You are invited to many local events throughout the year.

Spring, summer and autumn are long walks, kayaking on the lake, bird watching or just simply watching the sun mix its magic colours as it dips below the horizon. The lake attracts plenty of water sports during the summer months. Enjoy local produce in nearby eateries; fresh Coorong mullet with hints of bush tucker flavours.

If the weather is a little wet and cold what better than a short drive to a local winery or stroll through the local arts crafts shops or maybe a hit of golf. Dalton on the Lake is the perfect place to curl up with one of the local magazines or a movie and just breathe in the country air.

You can watch pelicans dancing in the breeze while relaxing at Dalton on the Lake. Local bird life is abundant and the magical Coorong only 10 minutes away.

We have plenty of tourism brochures and tips of local adventures to be had during your stay.
