Tabourie Lake opened to the sea

Published on 06 April 2023

Recent rainfall has resulted in the Tabourie Lake entrance requiring mechanical intervention for the second time this year.

This morning, Council used heavy machinery to open the entrance of Tabourie Lake in response to the lake reaching the opening trigger level of 1.3m AHD. The lake was opened in accordance with the Tabourie Lake Entrance Management Policy.

People are asked to keep away from the edges of the dug channel and eroding banks following opening as these areas are very unstable and unsafe.
