Explore Lake Opuha
Just out of town you will find our closest lake to Fairlie - Lake Opuha.
A great lake for boating, paddleboarding, kayaking, jet skiing, fishing and more.
Offering three self contained campsites at different points around the lake there are a multitude of views to wake up to for that early morning swim. If you’d rather stay dry there are plenty of walking trails around the area to enjoy local birdsong.
