Experience the Magic of the Coorong

Step aboard for an unforgettable 3.5-hour cruise of discovery through the remote and wondrous wetlands of the Coorong. Your journey begins at the historic port of Goolwa, where a delicious lunch is served as we glide past the heritage wharf towards the Goolwa Barrage. Feel the excitement as we pass through the lock chamber down to sea level, keeping an eye out for lazy fur-seals lounging nearby. 🦭

We then meander along the pristine waterways of the Coorong, following the final kilometres of the mighty Murray River to the spectacular Murray Mouth and its opening to the Southern Ocean. Cruise deep into legendary Storm Boy country, passing the quaint, historic Coorong Shacks.

Immersive Wilderness & Culture

Stretch your legs with an optional guided beach walk. Guided by expert commentary, you will traverse the towering dunes, visit an ancient Indigenous Midden site, and follow a fascinating bush-tucker trail to the roaring Southern Ocean at the infamous 90-Mile Beach. 🌊
