Tour Overview

We paddle along the shoreline of historic Battery Point – with its mixture of old and new towards Salamanca and ‘The Docks’, giving you the chance to actually be part of Hobart’s wonderful waterfront.

Soak up the city while you enjoy a snack of fish and chips straight from the punt, without having to get out of your kayak!

No experience is necessary, our fun and experienced guides will provide all the equipment you need and paddling instruction before taking you out to explore in stable double kayaks.
