FITNESS LEVELS:

OW STABLE ARE OUR KAYAKS:
Our kayaks are state‐of‐the‐art dagger sea kayaks, they are extremely stable and the chances of a capsize are very remote. You will be wearing a PFD (life jacket) at all times and the kayaks are virtually unsinkable due to their airtight compartments.

WEATHER CONDITIONS:
Rain will not affect the operation of our activities, in fact some of the best kayaking conditions are during rain. However strong winds may cause cancellation of our activities. If winds do look like they will affect the tour we will call you to discuss an alternative date.

EMERGENCY CONTACT ON THE DAY:
If you are running late and need to contact us on the day please call the office on (02) 9913 8939 or 0409 390 961 and calls will be relayed through to the guides – this number is operational outside of normal business hours.

IMPORTANT: Whilst we do provide alcohol to enjoy during dinner we advise drinking in moderation. Kayaking can be strenuous and excessive alcohol and kayaking do not mix.

DAY 1:

  • 8.00am Sydney Central Station Pickups (optional cost if required)
  • 9.30am Meet at the boat ramp at Berowra Waters Marina. The next 45- 60  minutes will be spent packing our gear into the kayak – a tricky juggling act to fit everything in. Followed by a safety talk and a demonstration on paddling techniques.
  • We set off kayaking past the dam and head up the arm of the river. Enjoy the picturesque scenery and the peaceful remoteness of this untouched area.
  • We'll camp overnight at our riverside campsite, where we'll enjoy a glass of wine and a delicious dinner.

DAY 2:

  • After a hearty breakfast we pack up the campsite
  • We explore the river further before making the return journey.
  • With plenty of stops for a swim and break for lunch.
