When one lives in the middle of nowhere during a drought they cannot be scalded for dreaming of water. I’ve been constantly thinking about rain, rivers and oceans, oh my. Apparently it can also cause people to book two water based getaways within the space of a fortnight. Well that’s our excuse and where sticking to it.
Our first getaway coincides with the October long weekend and will see us head to Noosa in Queensland. We are looking forward to exploring the Noosa area including:
- boating on the Noosa River
- beach fishing at Noosa North Shore
- enjoying a wine &/or coffee along Hastings Street
- walking through Noosa National Park
Please share with us things we must see and do while visiting the Noosa Region. We’d love to hear some insider secrets.
Our second water based holiday is one we have dreamt about for years. You cannot get anymore water-based than holidaying ON the river. So we’ve booked a houseboat on the Murray River has been booked for our Christmas-New Year break. Our boat departs from Echuca which is a lovely town that we have visited multiple times in Victoria.
Have you house-boated on the Murray River? We’d love to know how you enjoyed your experience? Please share any places to stop and explore?
Both your water based getaways sound amazing. I would love to go on a house boat down the Murray, even just to see the Murray.
Yes, it does sound amazing doesn’t it? We can’t wait. It has been something we have always wanted to do. The Murray River is something special. Make sure you get there and see it!
