About this market
Set on the waterfront foreshore of Paynesville, the boating capital of the Gippsland Lakes, this monthly market brings together local growers, makers and food stallholders for a relaxed morning by the water. Expect a good range of stalls selling local produce, handcrafted items and ready-to-eat food, making it an easy stop for locals stocking up and visitors exploring the lakes. The market is run by the Rotary Club of Mitchell River, Bairnsdale, and has a community feel. It also appears on the East Gippsland Winter Festival program each June.
