Drift back into a different time, when our waterways were our highways, and journey from the Port of Sale to the landmark Swing Bridge. Spot birds and wildlife as you cruise and your guide recounts the region’s remarkable stories, from its first people the Gunnaikurnai, through early settlement to the present day. The scene is set as you board The Rubeena, a classy wooden boat first launched at Lakes Entrance in 1912. Relax into her quiet rhythm and enjoy your voyage along the Sale Canal and Thomson River, surrounded by Red Gums, birdsong and reminders of a fascinating heritage. Cruises depart twice daily from the Port of Sale. There is ample parking available near the Dock. The Rubeena is available for private charter bookings. Daily departures at 10:00am and 2:00pm.
