Discover the charm of Morgan.

Located just 167km from Adelaide, Morgan Waterfront Marina sits in the heart of the Riverland in the historic town of Morgan, South Australia. Once a bustling inland port, second only to Port Adelaide, Morgan is now a quiet riverside escape steeped in character and natural beauty.

Take a step back in time with a visit to the Morgan Museum, housed in the original Landseer building. Lovingly maintained by local volunteers, it offers a fascinating glimpse into the town’s river-trading past.

As you travel upstream, you’ll pass the historic Morgan Wharf, where paddle steamers once docked to unload wool, wheat, and sheep destined for Port Adelaide via rail. It’s easy to picture the activity that once made Morgan a vital link in South Australia’s river trade.

Today, the river offers a more peaceful pace.

Enjoy fishing, swimming, boating, or simply relaxing on your vessel. The stretch upstream from Morgan features beautiful sandy riverbanks - perfect for a quiet getaway. While the land is privately owned, mooring is permitted in many areas.

Please respect the environment and landowners:

  • No chainsaws or motorbikes on shore.

  • Campfires are permitted only in season – use only dead wood or bring your own.

  • Fully extinguish fires with water (not sand).

Whether you're cruising the river or enjoying a long-term stay at the marina, Morgan has something for everyone who loves the river lifestyle.
