Anderson Inlet, Coastal inlet in South Gippsland, Victoria, Australia.

Anderson Inlet is a shallow estuary where the Tarwin River meets Bass Strait near the town of Inverloch. The waterway covers roughly 2,400 hectares and is surrounded by coastal landscape with boat access points at Inverloch and Maher's Landing.

The inlet is named after Samuel Anderson, the first European to settle in the area. The Boonwurrung name for it is Toluncan. It is sometimes incorrectly called Andersons Inlet.

BirdLife International classifies Anderson Inlet as an Important Bird Area for its red-necked stint, with counts of over 6,000 individuals. The critically endangered orange-bellied parrot was recorded there in 1998 (six birds) and 1999 (two birds). The inlet is also named Toluncan in Boonwurrung.

Explore this waterway by boat using the launch facilities at Inverloch or Maher's Landing for convenient access. Check tide tables before heading out, as low tide reveals extensive mudflats that affect navigation and water depth.
