LAKES COAST VISITOR GUIDE | PAGE 103 MARLO A peaceful coastal haven at the mouth of the Snowy Located at the mouth of the Snowy River and 14 kilometres south of Orbost, Marlo is a peaceful coastal town where you can get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. A popular fishing destination, at Marlo you can drop a line in the river, lakes or beach, which all offer the opportunity to catch a variety of fabulous eating fish. The Snowy River Estuary Walk provides stunning views of Marlo’s expansive estuary and river mouth – resplendent with white sand and turquoise water, and there are also stairs down to the beach. One popular local walking trail is the relatively short and easy French’s Narrows Coastal Walk, which starts in the car park on the south side of Marlo-Conran Road and heads out along the river mouth to the beach. Popular with birdwatchers, this 1.6km (return) trail traverses the coastal wetlands, with elevated boardwalks, a walking bridge and well-maintained sandy paths.
