Visit a thriving fruit industry or experience the thrill of watersports.  The family will love all the options.  

The region is renowned for it’s stunning conservation areas. Get back to nature, but set your own pace. There’s no rush in the Riverlands.  Sedately paddle through the fascinating backwaters of the Murray River.  Explore the hidden secrets on a guided tour or just set off yourself.  You never know what’s around the next bend. Captain your own houseboat and cruise in comfort past the iconic cliffs.  Navigate through the oldest lock and weir system on the river.

Take a chartered luxury paddle steamer or cruiser for a fantastic, curated experience. Local produce is stunning, foodies will love what the creative chefs can come up with using the sun drenched goodies of the region.  Taste the sweetest oranges, the fleshiest olives and fantastic wines. Of course you can drop in a line, yellowbelly or golden perch is good eating.

 Casting from amongst the red gums on the river banks as the sun settles is a once in a lifetime experience.  Cook up your catch and bunker down for the night. There’s just so much to see and do whether you want to photograph the amazing native birds, marvel at the history of the pioneers, trek through outstanding natural reserves or just play a round of golf and relax on a boat.  The Riverland is a retreat and a rejuvenator, let it work its magic on you.
