Discover Sea Lake
Accommodation in Sea Lake
If you're looking for a hotel in Sea Lake, you can plan your trip around local art or experiences of the surrounding landscape. Public art and galleries offer a different focus from the views at Lake Tyrrell or the activities at Green Lake. The seasonally open golf course and guided tours may also play a role in your planning.
Art and local themes in Sea Lake
Sea Lake Silo Art is part of the Wimmera Mallee Silo Art Trail. The work depicts a young girl swinging from a Mallee eucalyptus tree and looking out towards Lake Tyrrell. The scene brings together a botanical motif and a view of the lake. Sea Lake's main street is also decorated with murals depicting local flora and scenes from life in the Mallee.
The Skymirror Gallery offers another perspective on landscape and art. It opened in March 2018 and displays works ranging from traditional landscape photography to fine art. The murals and silo art draw on themes from the town and the Mallee, while the gallery's collection ranges from landscape photography to fine art. When planning, you can consider whether you're most interested in the large-scale artworks or the gallery's range of photography and art.
Information and tours to Lake Tyrrell
The Sea Lake Visitor Information Hub provides information about travelling through the Wimmera Mallee, sells local products and houses an Indigenous art gallery. You can also book a tour to Lake Tyrrell there. The Lake Tyrrell Sunset Tour offers a guided visit with a local operator. If you're planning a tour, check current availability and booking options in advance.
Lake Tyrrell is 7 km north of Sea Lake. The reflective surface of the shallow, ancient lake offers striking views, particularly at sunrise and sunset. A guided sunset tour and the views at these times of day are separate aspects to consider when planning. This can help you decide whether the light or the guided experience is your main priority, without conflating the two.
Green Lake, golf and other activities
Green Lake is 10 km from Sea Lake, along Sea Lake-Birchip Road. It has sandy beaches, powered sites, showers, and numerous picnic and barbecue areas. Walking trails pass through the bushland around the lake bed and into the adjoining Mallee and Pine-Buloke Forest Reserve. This means visitors can enjoy not only areas for relaxing and picnicking, but also walks through bushland and the forest reserve.
Sea Lake Golf Club has a 9-hole sand-scrape course that is open from April to October. If golf is important to your travel plans, check seasonal opening dates before you arrive. Sea Lake Swimming Pool offers residents of all ages recreational activities such as swimming, water sports and exercise, as well as water education opportunities. This facility is intended for the local community.
Planning your trip
At Lake Tyrrell, you can choose between views at sunrise and sunset and a guided tour; Green Lake offers beaches, picnic areas and walking opportunities. If you plan to play golf, take into account the April to October opening period.
