Start your day with a tram ride into Melbourne to Town Hall. Take a short 10 minute walk across the Yarra River to the Richmond Rowing Club to start your kayak tour.
After a quick briefing and paddling lesson, participants will get kitted up and head downriver under the Princes Bridge and into the heart of Melbourne. The tour will continue along the Yarra River past Flinders Station and up to the iconic Polly Woodside Tallship at South Wharf before entering the Docklands precinct and the beautiful Yarra’s Edge Marina. After a short break the paddlers then head back upstream past Crown Casino and the lively South Bank district before finishing back at Boathouse Drive.
With a fleet of extremely stable Sea Bear sea kayaks, the experience will be even easier for first-time paddlers.
Notes:
Minimum age 10 years. Participants must be moderately fit. Wear comfortable clothing. Shade is limited; to avoid sunburn, wear light, long clothing suitable for use as a cover-up. Bring a hat and sunglasses; wear biodegradable/reef-safe sunscreen.
