Murray River
South Australia's section of the beautiful Murray River contains plenty of water for you to enjoy a river holiday, despite current low rainfalls throughout Australia. Set along the shores of the mighty Murray River, the Murraylands is a favourite South Australian aquatic playground.
There's nothing that quite compares to a holiday on a houseboat, cruising up and down the river at your leisure in your own floating hotel.
The towns of the Murraylands have a relaxed, casual feel - the ideal place to spend a lazy afternoon in the sun after a day of watersports or fishing. And of course, there are plenty of opportunities to go bushwalking, or enjoy an old-fashioned singalong by the fire at a camping site.
