The town of Dareton is at the centre of the Coomealla Irrigation Area, an ambitious and successful horticultural development which begun in 1922. The bush landscape was transformed into a patchwork of orderly patterned vineyards and orchards by soldier settlers following the two world wars.
At the heart of Dareton is the Coomealla Memorial Sporting Club which provides fine dining and live entertainment. Adjacent to the ‘Coomie Club’ are excellent bowling greens, a caravan park and a full 18 hole greens golf course on the banks of the Murray River.
A visit to BMeet the meeting place of local indigenous artists will provide a fascinating insight to the very talented local artists. Neighboring BMeet is the Men’s Shed which has static displays of interest.
The area is an angler’s paradise and a natural habitat for fauna.
