Tour Overview
The Freycinet Peninsula and sea kayaking were made for each other!
The contrasts are stunning - pink granite mountains, sandy white beaches and blue waters so clear you feel you can touch the marine life below.
Sea kayaks allow us to slowly explore this spectacular coastline, passing quietly by wildlife such as majestic sea eagles.
Discover the history of secluded coves such as Honeymoon Bay and the Fisheries, tales of shipwrecked whalers, French explorers and the ancient culture of the Oyster Bay tribe.
Our friendly guides provide a safety briefing and paddling instruction before taking you onto the water in stable double kayaks. From the moment we set off you will be amazed at the stability of the kayaks and unique perspective of the coastline that sea kayaking offers. We pause midway through our adventure for a freshly brewed tea and coffee at one of the beaches that line this pristine coastline.
Our guides love this beautiful part of the world and look forward to sharing stories of its nature and culture to enhance your adventure. With every trip we ensure that safety is a priority; that everyone has a relaxed time in an enjoyable atmosphere and the beautiful environment is respected.
