Meningie
hugs the shoreline of Lake Albert and has a number of picturesque parks and
picnic areas . Albert and Alexandrina, into which the Murray River flows,
are freshwater lakes which support huge flocks of waterfowl.
The Coorong, which welcomes the Murray to the sea, is one of the state’s
spectacular national parks. It is a 100km-long saltwater lagoon and is separated
from the Southern Ocean by the dunes of the Younghusband Peninsula. The northern
and southern lagoons of the Coorong join at Parnka Point, 22km south of Meningie.
The point, which has been developed to cater for campers, is a paradise for
kayakers and is internationally renowned among the bird-watching community
which has recorded 200-plus species
Small town on Lake Albert popular with fishermen Trig Hill is one of the few spots which offers views over the flat countryside. A horse trail ride is staged here in March.
