The mighty Murray River is great for boating and water skiing and Euston has the convenience of a boat ramp in front of the Euston Club. There are several sandbars with access roads that are great for camping and fishing. The Murray is very wide and usable, so try hiring a houseboat for a weekend or a week.
The Euston Club stands on the site of the original Shailer Hotel. Prior to the opening of the old lift-bridge in 1924, a punt ferried people across the Murray River from this location.
Weir Lock 15, located downstream from Euston, includes a fish ladder and can be reached via bush tracks from Euston and through a parkland setting from the Robinvale southern side of the river. The Lock was built in 1934 and allows passage for paddle steamers and houseboats and the Murray is approximately 130 metres wide at this point.
