Experience the charm and heritage of the Murray River on the Paddle Steamer Marion, a beautifully restored vessel dating back to 1897. This iconic steamer, docked in Mannum, is a highlight of the Mannum Dock Discovery Centre.
Transport yourself to the vibrant days of the Murray River’s steam-powered past, with the authentic sights, sounds, and scents of a bygone era. Get up close to the impressive engines and boilers, chat with our knowledgeable crew.
Restored in 1994 through the tireless work of dedicated volunteers, the PS Marion remains one of the world’s last remaining steam-powered, wood-fired paddle steamers with accommodation.
A visit to the PS Marion will immerse you in the river trading days of the 1940s. Whether you explore the steamer docked at Arnold Park Wharf as part of the Mannum Dock Discovery Centre or take a scenic cruise along the Murray River, you’ll experience the spirit of traditional river life
