C. M. Thorpe Reserve

Parks and Gardens

This peaceful lake with a beach is a local secret. Situated minutes from the beach and the heart of Victor Harbor. The lake with sandy shore is a sheltered place for the kids to swim. Across the road from a deli, so grab a coffee and some snacks. Find a picnic table in the shade and settle in for a peaceful moment.
Loved by paddle boarders and those with kayaks and canoes. If you are lucky, you may even catch the Dragon Boat Racing Club out on the water. Toilets and an outside shower are handy after building all those sandcastles. What a beautiful place to pass a couple of hours.
