Strathmerton is a small place on the Murray Valley Highway in Victoria, between Echuca and Cobram. Strathmerton is near the Murray River and is well known for the sandy beaches that have been created on bends in the river - about 18. Carters Beach on Ulupna Island has picnic tables, a playground and toilet facilities. This is very rich dairying country and there is a large Bega Cheese factory in town.
Strathmerton is also known as 'Cactus Country' with a landscaped cacti garden about 2.5 kilometres from town (on the road to Cobram). This garden features over 10,000 cacti and succulents with specimens from South America, North America and Africa. It is open daily 9 am-5 pm with tours by appointment, and a Mexican themed restaurant - definitely worth a visit as a lot of hard work has gone into establishing this interesting garden.
