Riverlands South Australia
Lush orchards and spreading vineyards embracing a meandering river making its languid way to the Southern Ocean - that's Riverlands. The semi-arid nature of the region and the precious water from the Murray produce not only grapes, citrus and stone fruit in abundance but also wonderful blue skies, long lazy days and brilliant sunsets. A two hour drive from Adelaide makes it easily accessible and well worth the effort.

Houseboats are the perfect way to experience the Murray; they're readily available in any size, operator friendly and very comfortable. Explore the river, stop where you will, a creek or a billabong, a town or a village, a golf course or an amusement park, a winery or a restaurant, swim or fish or sip a glass of red and watch the sun go down - its hard to beat.
