Bittangabee Bay/Ben Boyd National Forest, New South Wales, Australia Just south of Eden in New South Wales lies a sensational rugged and remote stretch of coastline within the Ben Boyd National Forest.

Lakes Entrance, Victoria, Australia In the Eastern part of the state of Victoria Australia lies a man-made channel that connects the Gippsland Lakes to the Bass Strait that is an abundant hotspot for tourism, fishing, and watersport recreation.
