The staff were amazing and took such great care of me from start to finish. Beau was incredibly knowledgeable, skilled, and had such a great sense of humour. Peach was also absolutely lovely and so friendly. Everyone was welcoming, professional, and genuinely made me feel well looked after.
We were lucky enough to see so many whales and turtles today too, which made the experience even more unforgettable! 🐋💙
Thank you so much to the whole team for making my day so special and for giving me one of the best days of the year! 🥰
Highly recommended — I’ll definitely be back!

10/10 MUST BOOK. This was the best experience of my trip. Pete and Doug were amazing and they really wanted us to have a great time and let us stay out kayaking longer so we could see a WHALE which came up ten feet away from us. genuinely BEST experience of my life. Everyone should do this, Pete and Doug were the absolute best and such a fun time. Couldn’t recommend this company more!

Magical couple of hours in nature This was a fantastic kayak adventure. We were lucky enough to come close to a whale and to see pods of dolphins super close. Pete and Dylan were excellent guides, they were encouraging and informative. I’ll never forget this experience, it was magical. Highly recommended

Loved this experience I went on a kayak tour with 'Go Sea Kayak' and they were fantastic. It was myself and my 5 yr old daughter, who they looked out for so kindly. We were offered either a kayak to ourselves, or jump on with Bo, one of the guides which we went for. He was super knowledgeable, and very reassuring in the wavey parts. My daughter loved it, and it was so special floating nearby the pod of dolphins and turtle-spotting. We even saw a whale passing on the horizon. Many thanks to Pete, Bo and the team for taking us out, we had a blast!read moreread less

The best kayak tour in Byron Bay!
We did the sunrise tour and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. We were lucky enough to see dolphins and turtles, which made the tour even more special.
A big shout-out to our guides, Bo and Dougie, who were fantastic. They made us feel comfortable, safe, and confident throughout the entire tour, even if you’re not an experienced kayaker.
The views at sunrise were absolutely stunning, and the whole experience was unforgettable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Byron Bay! 🌅🐬🐢

The day before yesterday, we went on a fantastic sea kayaking trip. We saw plenty of dolphins and spotted sea turtles surfacing twice. The kayaking was very manageable; there were frequent breaks to rest, with an explanation of the surroundings and the wildlife. Even though it is winter, we enjoyed a beautiful, sunny day out on the water. A special word of thanks to Pete and Cooper
for this amazing experience. Highly recommended!

Solo traveller paired with a guide or another solo individual.
Did this tour twice as the wildlife were away doing wildlife things during my first tour! The guides were exceptional at keeping everyone together and keeping a watchful eye on us as currents and swells changed to keep us safe.
We saw the beautiful coastline, a gorgeous full moon still hanging in the sky and surfing dolphins. It was an eventful and magical morning with great people!
Thank you Daryl, Luke, Andre, Dougie and Pete!

Beautiful sunset kayaking We had a wonderful kayaking experience on the Brunswick River last weekend. Our guide shared a lot of the Indigenous history with us, which as locals was great to learn because some of it, we had not been aware of before. We were very lucky to have the tour all to ourselves. We would highly recommend this to anyone wanting an authentic, peaceful, local experience. Thank you.read moreread less

Everywhere you look there was dolphins Booked this in advance. Got super lucky with the sea state and was super calm. Meant for super easy paddling. Probably should have gotten there 15-30 minutes before the scheduled time as was the last to arrive.
The kit was all good. The guides were great. Good Comms. Good banter. Hearded the group well without being upset.
We had a small 8 kayak ish group. I was with Laurie who had done the trip Friday but not seen much and had a rebook.
A quick brief and we were underway.
Great mix between getting some distance done and resting/watching for sea life.
A few turtle heads spotted early in the distance.
Paddled around the corner to spot multiple small pods of dolphins. This started an hour or excellent encounters some 10ft away some 50ft.
Guides were great at slowly getting close without spooking and the group were all well behaved and didn't chase.
Stopped for a swim on the way back. Lost a few pairs of glasses between the group.
Happy people all round.

What an 'oresome' experience and team! Can't thank the crew (Doug, Beau & Jeremy) enough for such considerate and kind care of our young girls. They made the experience fun and calming for our 5 and 6 year old daughters. The paddle was epic on its own and seeing dolphins up close made it even more magic! We highly recommend go sea kayak to anyone wanting a life pinching moment in byron! Sending much appreciation ✌️thanks crew and mother nature! 🐬💙🦅

My cousin and I had an amazing experience with this company. Our trip was so much fun, seeing dolphins and a couple turtles! The guides were amazing, knew their stuff and made us feel safe the entire time (despite our need to catch as many waves as possible!). Would definitely reccomend this trip to anyone. It was worth the money, great location, a different experience and the perfect amount of time where it was full of fun, but not too exhausting. Honestly, easier than we had expected! I would consider going again if I am ever back in Byron Bay.

Not to be missed Kayaking Byron Bay An amazing adventure across the waves at main beach Byron Bay! having never done sea kayaking before our 2 guides made us feel relaxed and excited about the trip and had so much information and stories to tell. A bargain for 2 1/2 hours taking in the fabulous views from the ocean across to Mt Warning (Wollumbin) and the coast of Bungalung country, out to Julian rocks and Wategoes Beach what a treat ! We really enjoyed the song with our guides that brings the dolphins and whales to us that the local Arakwal custodians have shared with them., We saw rays skim across the water and a very inquisitive turtle and lots of fish .A small group created a really lovely atmosphere and great for making new friends .Celebrating my 70th birthday with my daughter was just magical and the guides made sure we were safe and supported .Don't miss out on experiencing Byron from the water I highly recommend this trip! and can't wait to go again during the whaling season.

We had such a good experience a couple of weeks ago and keep talking about it. The guides were great and didn’t work us too hard. They found us dolphins and turtles quickly, which we were right next to - it was incredible. Our only regret was not taking any photos, which there was lots of opportunity to do, so take your Go Pros/ waterproof phone protectors if you can :)

Brilliant tour!! This wasn’t something I would normally do but my partner wanted to but honestly I’m so glad we did this. Even though we only saw one turtle and two fooling for a few seconds the experience was unmatched. You get to see the pure clearness and beautiful blues of the sea and all the reefs below while getting all the knowledge the guides have. On top of that the guide were brilliant, very friendly, funny and amazing people. We had this boy kayden with us in the tour and he was absolutely amazing for a little one and was so helpful.

What an experience! Loved the whole 2 hours. It felt more like 30mins.
I thought I wouldn't have the energy for it but I left feeling more energetic than when I arrived!
Saw a dolphin 2x! Once one went under my kayak! Another time one came up a little ways from us. It was amazing. Others saw turtles too. My first time proper experience!
The staff were awesome, and nice!. Gave me a wet suit and kept an eye on me the whole time. The guide made sure I wasn't too hot or needed a dip to cool off.
The instructor was informative and funny!
Awesome! Awesome Day!!

We had the most amazing time kayaking this morning at 9am. The weather was perfect and the sea was calm! We saw loads of dolphins and kayaked around 4km. We were able to take amazing videos and the staff were beyond lovely! The staff were super informative about sea life and Byron Bay as a whole, they also were friendly and funny. We highly recommend wearing bikinis even if it’s on the colder side as you get very wet going in and out of the sea due to the waves (it took us a little by surprise!). Also if you get sea sick think about taking tablets. Highly recommend as a must do when coming to Byron

More wildlife than a Saturday all-nighter in Ibiza!
We watched bottlenose dolphins casually porpoise past our kayak while sea turtles poked their heads above the waves for a breather.
What a marvellous sun-kissed morning paddle with Go Sea Kayak in Byron Bay.
These are the people you want to guide you out past the surf and onto an aquatic adventure. Informative, safety-conscious and good-humoured. Five-star legends.

Big shout out to Cole my buddy who gave me the “business class” experience telling me all about the bay and wildlife. We saw turtles and dolphins and the whole experience felt truly magical. The guides respected the dolphins and let them come to us rather than chasing them. I recommend this trip to anyone travelling to Byron Bay!

Incredible day with these guys out on the water! We saw dolphins and whales- right near our kayaks- it was truly amazing! One whale was coming up out of the water with his barnacled mouth visible….then as we headed back to shore we saw about six whales breach one after the other & lots of pectoral finn slapping…bring on the water with them was so much better than in a big whale watching boat. All the crew were great fun, informative & helpful! Highly recommend!!!

Sometimes you just don’t see anything and that’s ok, we had so much fun in the meantime (and also beats any arm workout I’ve done before!). They provided us with wetsuits at no extra cost which was a lifesaver and they also had waterproof lanyards available for purchase which made our experience so stress free.

Amazing activity to do in Byron Bay! You’re first given a kayaking lesson then head out into the bay. The guides are really helpful and provided interesting commentary about Byron Bay and the animals that inhabit it. We spent about nearly 2 hours on the water. Unfortunately, we did not see any dolphins but we saw a few turtles. Even if we hadn’t seen any wildlife, I would still highly recommend this activity (if this happens, they are kind enough to offer another session for free).

Such a divine experience with the super chilled and informative Bo who made everyone feel so at ease. We were super lucky on the day to have seen so many dolphins including babies. But really it is all in the hands of Mother Nature, which people need to remember. This is the wild, not a zoo after all. But the guides will use their local knowledge to provide the best chance possible and the company allows you to do another tour if you miss out. So always a good idea to book at the start of your trip. I recommend sea sick tablets just to make you more comfortable. Extremely well organised operation and our group had 3 guides to help. So you will be well looked after. Thank you Bo.

Loved the experience! Great guides, Boe was my kayak partner for the trip, highly recommended! However couldn’t spot any wildlife on the day, still a good trip

One of the highlights of my time in Byron Bay - the team are so friendly, instructive and helpful with all things kayaking and respecting the environment around us.
The day was incredibly fun and met some incredible people on the day - and yes, we did end up "taking a swim" once or twice, haha.
I'd recommend this to anyone tempted by this, especially if you can time it during the whale migration season.

Very cool experience Very cool experience, that the guides make you feel super safe for by teaching you how to get over and back from surf. We saw Dolphins, turtles, lots of fish and birds. Would recommend as a fun morning activity to anyone visiting Byron, especially if your not keen to surf, but still want to get out into the bay and see the wildlife.read moreread less

The kayak trip was good fun and the guides were excellent. Getting out and back through the breaking waves was exciting and the guides gave great advice and help. The paddling otherwise was fine but there wasn’t a lot for us to see and it didn’t feel as though we paddled very far for the time we had. Sadly, other than a brief glimpse of 2 dolphins we didn’t spot anything of interest which was a shame but just luck of the day. We all enjoyed the afternoon and I would recommend it.

Worthwhile kayak experience We went on a tour this morning with the lovely tour guide dougie! He told us all about Byron bay and really made the experince good. It was stunning views for the sunrise kayak tour and such good conditions. Unfortunately we did not see any wildlife but the experince was still amazing! He did promise us we can come back again another day for free on another kayak trip which is nice!read moreread less

Amazing Paddle … with Whales We took The Sunrise Byron Bay Sea Kayak Tour. Our guides were friendly and welcoming, never in a hurry. They got us outfitted and on the water and then shared local history and stories about the marine life we might see. They are eco-minded and very respectful of the animals.The weather was beautiful and the seas calm at 06:30. We saw dolphins (including babies) very quickly, and that would have been enough, but then we saw humpback whales. With calves. 10 meters away. It was breathtaking.
Highly recommend paddling with Go Sea Kayak. You may not see whales, but you will have a great time.

Sunrise tour experience Fabulous & highly recommend!Very professional & well organised.
We saw so many dolphins (some up very close) & a whale migrating (a siting this late in the year was unexpected)
Expect to get wet & make sure you only take a phone if it is in a waterproof cover (they can provide you a waterproof pouch when you arrive for $15 )
Despite our best attempts, my partner & I could not master the shore landing in a sea kayak & many laughs. Felt safe the entire time

Had the most amazing time out on the kayaks with the guys yesterday.
We were lucky enough to get super close to some Humpback whales and saw loads of dolphins!!
The crew were so knowledgable and made the whole experience so cool and memorable.
Would highly recommend the Go Sea Kayaks to anyone visiting Byron! 🌞🌞

Such an amazing tour! We were so so lucky to see Whales 100m from our boat. Pete, Luke and Matt were all awesome guides, and it was great of them to teach us how to be respectful when paddling close to Whales.
The wind was pretty strong so paddling was hard, but it kind of added to the excitement. Was an amazing experience, totally recommend!

What an awesome morning. I was luckily enough to share a boat with the awesome Instructor Marty who did a fantastic job of educating me on the wildlife and surrounding area, whilst no doubt doing a lot more paddling than me. We saw plenty of dolphins and whales all very close up. The rest of the group and instructors were also great. Lots of fun. Worth getting up for the sunrise tour.

What an awesome adventure, with some really awesome people! These guys are fantastic at what they do, and you will experience a thoroughly pleasurable & exciting kayaking experience out in the glorious sea! Sometimes, you just can't help slipping into the beautiful blue water while we have a "pit stop"! It was fantastic!
You will spend some time diligently listening to the instructions & safety guidelines prior to embarking on your journey.
Beau, keep that great sense of humour up; you're a classic! Thanks, David, for the terrific photos, much appreciated; especially since you were busy getting us all out there, as well! Thanks again guys, I'm super grateful! Will definitely be back! Thoroughly recommend, if you're in Byron Bay. ????

Highly recommend Probably my favorite kayaking experience ever. We saw a lot of dolphins up close—they put on a real show for us. It was also fun to be in the open ocean and go through the waves. I went alone but made plenty of friends.read moreread less

A must do in Byron Bay! Great tour and great guides The most amazing kayak trip. Our original kayak tour was cancelled due to very high waves so a new tour way arranged for the next day at sunrise and it was the best start to all of our days. We saw loads of dolphins! The guides were great, especially Luke who was the main guide and gave lots of information on the wildlife and Byron Bay in general. He also had a great sense of humour and made the trip a really enjoyable one!Thank you!
