SNAKE ISLAND
Snake Island, VIC 3971, is a small, rural locality in the Gippsland region of Victoria, Australia. Situated near the mouth of the Tarwin River and adjacent to Anderson Inlet, it is renowned for its natural beauty, including coastal landscapes, wetlands, and abundant wildlife, particularly birdlife and, as the name suggests, snakes. The area is sparsely populated, with limited residential development, and is primarily used for agricultural purposes, such as cattle grazing. Its serene, isolated environment makes it a haven for nature enthusiasts, anglers, and those seeking a peaceful retreat. However, residents and visitors must be cautious of the local wildlife and potential flood risks due to its low-lying coastal location.
