Free Learn to Kayak Lesson
Event location
Description
Start your paddling experience safely and comfortably with a Free Three Hour Paddling Session from Sydney Harbour Kayaks' Professional Paddling Staff.
The Intro to Kayaking lesson is our simplest introductory course, where we will focus on establishing the basic concepts that will allow you to be self-sufficient and efficient in your paddling.
We will cover many important aspects of paddling including safety and basic strokes, that will allow you to learn to maneuver your kayak (ie keep it going straight!) and allow you to enjoy the process of paddling.
If you do not have your own kayak, then we will be teaching you in a stable and comfortable sit-on-top kayak.
Please Note: You must be a beginner paddler, however you can do this lesson several times until you feel confident when paddling.
Note: we can teach children as young as 12 years of age
however they must be accompanied by an adult.
This is a great family activity and we encourage you to learn as a family!
If you are a school group, then please call us to work out a customised plan.

The Paddle Safe / Paddle Smart Kayak Lessons are FREE.
If you do not have your own kayak then the kayak rental will cost $55.00 for the duration of the lesson - 3 hours.
Course Size: Minimum # of Students: 3, Maximum: 8
