LAKE RESERVE

Public BBQ

St Leonard's Lake Reserve offers that increasingly rare commodity along Victoria's Bellarine Peninsula: genuine tranquillity. The lakeside park draws waterfowl enthusiasts year-round, with substantial populations of ducks and geese providing natural entertainment along well-maintained walking paths that circuit the water. The setting delivers peaceful respite without the contrived atmosphere of more manicured reserves,birds outnumber visitors most days, and the ambient soundtrack leans heavily toward honking rather than traffic. The grounds include a functional oval for casual sport, though the cricket nets show their age and await overdue replacement. For those seeking relaxation over recreation, the reserve's unhurried pace and abundant birdlife create an understated charm that keeps locals returning and occasionally surprises visitors who stumble upon this quiet pocket of the peninsula.
