Lake McKenzie (Boorangoora)

Lake McKinsey is a rainwater lake with no groundwater, no streams entering it, and no flow into the sea. The sand at the bottom of the lake forms a barrier to prevent rainwater from running off the lake. The lake is surrounded by green hills, the lake water is blue and crystal clear, and the white sand by the lake is very soft.
