The town serves the local area and fruit industries with substantial shopping facilities and provides the administrative centre for the region. Also in town is the Big Orange (5km north-east), extensive water sports & facilities, the Water Tower lookout, the Murray River National Park (10km south) and the Berri Estates Winery.
