Join us for our widely acclaimed Half Day Sea kayak Tour. Paddle to unspoilt ocean coves and relax in remote beauty. Morning tea and snorkelling equipment provided.

Operated By:

Region X

Discover the pristine South Coast NSW by Sea Kayak on this popular experience. Kayak in our comfortable vessels to remote, inaccessible pockets of coastline to swim, snorkel, explore by foot, eat, or simply bask in the natural beauty. 

If you have never been in a sea kayak, then be prepared to be impressed. They are safe, comfortable, and perfect for remote coastal adventures. Every tour starts with a kayaking lesson, so you know the basics before setting off. In no time you will be navigating rock passages and gliding through the crystal-clear ocean waters with ease.  

This is the perfect tour for spotting migrating birds, schools of fish, playful seals and dolphin, and the very real chance of seeing whales during migration from August to November! 

Our Half Day Sea Kayak Tour isn’t JUST about kayaking. Once we’ve chosen the perfect remote cove in which to land, we will pull up to explore, relax, and enjoy homemade treats, fruit, hot coffee and cold juice. Once we feel replenished by nature, we’ll set off again for the final kayaking leg.
