Cruising becomes a part of the tourist attraction in the region as it travels around the most interesting places of the region. Mallee's uniquely Australian landscape mixed with the picturesque river that surrounds it makes this a great place for scenic drives and walks. The Murray River Trail of South Australia follows the curves and bends of the river and offers stopping points at various towns, historic attractions, as well as other points of interest within the region of Murraylands.
People of long ago have depended on the abundance of Murray River. The peoples of Ngarrindjerri and Ngangurak established their homelands along Murray and Coorong. Their history is richly displayed in the following historic spots: Mannum Dock Museum in Mannum; Pioneer Park in Karronda which featured the old railways and farming; Pomberuk Aboriginal Culture Centre which presents a dance performance and collection of arts and stories; Swan Reach Museum which tells the story of the floods experienced way back 1917, 1931 and 1956; Captain Cottage Museum at Murray Bridge featuring the collection on historical memorabilia; and simply through a walk on the towns of Murraylands on their local visitor information centre. Up to the present times, the Murray River has become one of the concerns of the locals in the region as it becomes a reserve.
There are lots of things to do and see at Mannum's Breeze Hire such as kayaking, knee boarding, jet-skiing, and water skiing. You can also experience paddling in this place where one can explore and admire the wildlife of the waters. You can also choose to simply relax to fishing in the Murray, bird watching in Ngarkat Conservation Park, or go shopping and museum visitations. Other amusements parks include Monarto Zoological Park, which is a 1000 open range zoo. It is famous for their breeding programs that preserved endangered species and other wildlife. Another place to be is the Pomberuk Aboriginal cultural centre, where the Pomberuk tells the Ngarrindjeri story through their art gallery and theater performances.
