Highlights

  • Cruise downstream from Goolwa's historic wharf, soaking in stunning views of the Murray River and Southern Ocean.
  • Spot lazy fur seals lounging as you glide through the lock chamber, experiencing the serenity of nature's playground.
  • Explore the Coorong's dunes on an optional guided walk, uncovering rich cultural history and bush-tucker delights.
  • Savour freshly cooked Pipi's on board while enjoying panoramic vistas of Storm Boy country and towering dunes.

Cruise downstream from the port of Goolwa historic wharf & towards the Goolwa Barrage. Travel through the lock chamber, down to sea level and spot a few lazy fur seals lounging about. We then meander along the waterways of the Coorong, following the last kilometres of the mighty Murray River to the Murray Mouth and its opening to the Southern Ocean.

Cruise on past the Murray Mouth and into Storm Boy country, passing by the quaint fishing village of the Coorong Shacks before pulling up onto the beach for an optional guided walk through the dunes, Indigenous Midden site, rich cultural interpretation and bush-tucker trail to the infamous 90-Mile Beach and the roaring Southern Ocean.

Learn the ‘Coorong Shuffle’ and dig for Pipi’s on the beach before returning back to the vessel. Our skipper has been busy cooking up a taster of ‘Pipi’s’ to try before we continue our cruise past Storm Boy filming sites, towering dunes and enjoy a delicious lunch on-board as we pass by the other barrages and deep into the Coorong.

Your day of sightseeing and non-stop views awaits.
