There are only two seagoing paddle steamers left in the world one in the UK, and The Decoy right here on the Swan River

Since taking over the vessel, the vision has been simple: preserve the history, elevate the experience and create a venue that feels timeless for all occasions

Built around a beautifully restored 1905 steam engine, The Decoy is a living piece of maritime history. From weddings and private celebrations to corporate functions and live music events we cannot wait to see you on board The Decoy
