Cruises, Sailing and Water Tours

Mildura Paddle Steamers offer a range of cruises aboard the three vessels in their fleet; the Paddle Steamer Melbourne (1912), Paddle Vessel Rothbury (1881) and the Paddle Boat Mundoo (1987).

Departing from Mildura Wharf, Mildura Paddle Steamers are a family owned and operated business, now into the third generation, after it was established by Captain Alby Pointon and his wife Freda, in 1955.

The vessels are available for charter, weddings, functions, conferences, coach groups and other groups.
