Lake Bonney Holiday Park: Barmera

The popular Riverland town of Barmera is located on the shores of Lake Bonney, and is central to the popular tourist attractions of the region. Often called ‘South Australia’s aquatic adventure playground’, Lake Bonney is a freshwater lake fed from the River Murray through the Chambers Creek wetlands, and its shallow waters are ideal for all types of water sport.

Lake Bonney Holiday Park is perfectly located on the shores of the 1680 hectare lake, and is a holiday destination for those who enjoy safe swimming, yachting, windsurfing jetskiing and fishing.

It is within easy walking distance of the shops, hotel and clubs. The lake and the adjacent wetlands are also a mecca for photographers and birdwatchers, and those who only want to put their feet up, relax and marvel at the stunning sunsets reflected vividly on the calm waters of the lake.

With a Mediterranean climate, the Riverland boasts more sunshine hours than the Gold Coast, making it the perfect year-round holiday destination.

Green lawns, large shady trees, spotless modern amenities and spacious lake frontage sites, combine to make the park an appealing proposition. Other facilities include a kiosk with ice and gas, laundries, childrens playground, electric barbeques, public telephones and van storage.
