Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: The Goolwa Barrage, Barrage Road, Goolwa, South Australia Australia

A delicious lunch is served on board as we cruise downstream from the port of Goolwa along the historic wharf & towards the Goolwa Barrage. Travel through the lock chamber, down to sea level and spot a few lazy fur-seals lounging about.

Pass By: Murray Mouth, Goolwa, South Australia 5001 Australia

We then meander along the waterways of the Coorong, following the last kilometres of the mighty Murray River to the Murray Mouth and the 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 a 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 and continuing our cruise past Storm Boy filming sites and towering dunes. Afternoon Tea is served on the meandering return journey back to Goolwa.

Beautiful scenery, bird-life, seals and expert commentary along the way - this 3.5 hour cruise of Discovery is the perfect way to see the remote and wondrous wetlands of the Coorong.

Excellent well organised tour with extremely interesting information given. Lunch was served in individual packs and was good quality and was of sufficient quantity.

Beautiful scenery and a great way to experience the beauty of the Coorong. We were made to feel very welcome and was a lovely group of people on board our tour. Prob not ideal to sit upstairs and trying to eat your lunch on a windy day!! Also couldn’t hear the commentary from upstairs as easy! Maybe advise to sit downstairs and just move around for different views throughout the afternoon at the rear of the boat and upstairs if not too windy and cool! Overall great arvo out!

We really enjoyed the experience, the boat was comfortable & well fitted out. The cruise was relaxed & we enjoyed the scenery & wildlife. Interesting to pass through the lock, spend some time in the Murray mouth & walk the path through the sand dunes to the beach. Suitable for all ages & great options to sit inside or on the upper deck. Lunch was served on board & was a really nice packed lunch. They cater for dietary requirements- just let them know ahead of time or at booking. Enjoyable relaxing afternoon
