Sydney: Guided Kayak Tour of Manly Cove Beaches

Admire the stunning environment of Manly Cove on a relaxing kayak tour.

Arrive early for a coffee or tea while you get ready for your tour. After a short safety briefing and paddling demonstration, you'll head out with an experienced guide and explore the cove's three beautiful beaches. We will paddle to Collins Flat, Store and Quarantine beaches, passing picturesque caves, striking rock formations and mini-waterfalls. You will stop on a secluded beach to learn a little about the local area and enjoy a refreshing juice and snacks. If you are keen to take a dip, there's plenty of time for a swim before we paddle back.

You don't need any previous experience kayaking, as this is a gentle tour at a leisurely pace. Your experienced guides will make sure you have a well-fitted life jacket, and give you a safety briefing and paddling demonstration before we head out.

You are welcome to bring a phone or small camera to capture the views, as we hand out dry bags before setting off.

You will have a choice of a single or double sit on top kayak. The single kayaks are streamlined and fast, or choose a double kayak if you'd like to share the paddling in a sturdier ride.

Children under 10 can join with an adult (or two) on double kayaks (which have a middle seat). Children 10-18 must be accompanied by an adult, but can paddle solo.

In the case of unsuitable weather, we will postpone the tour.

This is a small group. Maximum 8. Larger private groups can be arranged by request.
