In the early European settlement of East Gippsland, Lake King allowed access and shipping passage from Lakes Entrance and the sea to the shipping ports of Bairnsdale via the Mitchell River and Bruthen via the Tambo River as well as access to the port of Sale via Lake Victoria and Lake Wellington. Boating facilities and access to Lake King can be found at the lakeside villages of PaynesvilleEagle Point and Metung.
