Paddle Steamer Marion | Australia



Postcard
For much of its length, the Murray is a slow-moving river – making it absolutely perfect for a paddlesteamer. This type of boats were used in the 1800’s to transport all sorts of goods up and down the river Murray. Today a perfect way to explore the river.

Over a 100 years old, PS Marion is the only vessel of her type left in the world. PS Marion was built in 1897 and is the world's last wood fired, side paddle wheel steamers with accommodation operating.
