Kayaking Melbourne
Melbourne from a different angle
Come on a kayaking tour in the heart of Melbourne! Sea Kayaks are the perfect way to see the city differently!
Our Yarra River Tour runs downriver and begins at the front of the Rowing Boat Sheds to the east of Princes Bridge. Following our safety briefing, we will set off kayaking past Melbourne's Southgate thriving restaurant and cafe precinct and discover the path of the early pioneers as we explore the Docklands precinct. The tour then takes us under the Westgate Bridge where you will understand the enormity of the construction before stopping off for refreshments at Docklands. We then return at dusk to our starting point.
- Session 1 - Briefing on the Day's Tour
- Session 2 - Basic Instruction on how the sea kayaks work, how to paddle and a basic skills session.
- Session 3 - 2-hour Kayak Tour on the Yarra River
This trip allows you to become familiar with the Kayaks in an easy to paddle environment. It also allows us to evaluate your skill level if you are planning do more kayaking in the future. Coastline tours of Port Phillip Bay are also available.
