Herb Guyatt Reserve
A nice, short, flat bush walk with well cut paths
20 minutes drive from Sale is a gorgeous long stretch of beach. Not ideal for surfing, but great for a swim or sunbathe. Gentle waves with no seaweed, areas to set up in the shade, surf lifeguard and a local fresh fish and chip joint.

Winery
A lovely local winery with a beautiful view over the vines. Offering an extensive menu, and the ability to try some of Gippslands best wines and cheeses. Sunday's are a great day to visit, with live music in the vines but make sure to ring ahead, as soaking in the sun, drinking rose and grazing from a cheeseboard can be rather popular!
Avon Ridge Vineyard
446 Maffra-Stratford RoadA beautiful local winery offering wood fired pizzas and an extensive tasting menu. The Blue Gables sparkling shiraz has to be our favourite from their cellar, but don't just take my advice, why not try them all?!
