Our half day, full day and multi-day trips along with our sea kayak training courses are the perfect way to explore Tasmania’s wild places! Our team is immensely proud to have been recognised as Australia's Best Adventure Tourism operators at the 2019 national awards, adding to a number of state tourism awards. Our half day, full day and multi-day kayaking tours, as well as instructional lessons, cater for all experience levels and timeframes. Our safety record’s impeccable too! Adventure with us on a premium sea-kayaking eco-tour into the spectacular Bathurst Harbour and Port Davey in Tasmania's Wilderness World Heritage Area. This is a sea-kayaker's paradise, with a combination of sheltered wilderness harbours, rugged ocean coastlines, remote islands and wild rivers. On Flinders Island we paddle to offshore islands and into secluded coves, slipping quietly between beautiful orange granite boulders. The water is so clear that you'll see sand ripples, swaying kelp and fish in abundance. Closer to Hobart the popular day tours explore the dramatic coastlines of the Tasman and Tinderbox peninsulas, kayaking among sea cliffs, sea caves, shipwrecks and wildlife. For a different perspective on Hobart's vibrant waterfront, join us on a 2.5-hour paddle and weave among the yachts, tall ships, fishing boats and cruise ships of this beautiful harbour then tuck into a snack of fish and chips whilst still afloat.

What a day for a paddle! We were lucky enough to get through the gap to the Totem Pole out at the Tasman today, enjoying the epic cliffs and playful seals 🦭😎 As such, we thought it was worth an extra large photo dump today 👌Thanks for a great day everybody, Mischa and Mike

Thanks to this crew of legends for a beautiful and calm day exploring Fortescue bay. There was a bit of lumpiness from the residual swell, but the calm winds made for a lovely relaxed day of kayaking and sightseeing.

Thanks for bringing the weather and hope to see you back for another paddle one day! 😎☀️🌊

Cheers, Kane 🤙

What a dreamy day to explore Cape Hauy and Fortescue Bay!

We paddle along the gently lapping coastline, watching the Bull Kelp sway beneath us.

White Bellied Sea Eagles watched us weave between the Sea Jellies from their vantage point above.

Albatross soared low over the water as we shot the gap between the Lanterns.

Thank you for a wonderful day!
