Cruising on the mighty Murray River

Mannum is home of the first paddle steamer on the Murray and is certainly the houseboat capital of Australia offering many cruising options.

The grand PS Murray Princess departs twice a week, the PW Mayflower four times a week and the PS Marion built in 1897 offers short and long cruises throughout the year.

Houseboats are a wonderful opportunity to bring your friends and family together and take in the majestic scenery so close to the township, cruising for just a few kilometres takes you to another world where you can recharge and connect with the river.

If you have never experienced a leisurely cruise on the Murray, Mannum is the perfect place to capture the beauty of our great waterway with its ever changing landscape and kaleidoscope of colours and birdlife.

Let the Murray River take you on a long slow dance as you cruise through its mystical magnificence whist it draws you in like a magnet. Once you have cruised the Murray at Mannum, you will always come back!
