Guided Kayak Tour of Manly Cove Beaches
Overview
Small group, relaxing guided kayak tour that lets you admire the stunning environment of Manly Cove and learn a little history about the local area. After a short safety briefing and paddling demonstration, you'll head out with an experienced guide and explore the cove's beautiful beaches.
We will paddle to Little Manly, Collins, Store and Quarantine beaches, passing picturesque caves, striking rock formations and mini-waterfalls. You will stop on a secluded beach for some refreshments, a stroll, and there's plenty of time for a swim before we paddle back.
You don't need any previous experience kayaking, as this is a gentle tour at a leisurely pace. Your experienced guides will make sure you have a well-fitted life jacket, and give you a safety briefing and paddling demonstration before we head out.
You are welcome to bring a phone or small camera to capture the views, as we hand out dry bags before setting off.
Larger private groups can be accommodated by request.

Nov 2021No experience is necessary! Beginners are welcome on all of our kayak tours. Most of our guests have never been in a sea kayak before. Anyone in average physical condition may join a kayak tour. If you can hike or bike, you can paddle our sea kayaks. You do not need any swimming skills either.
The only prerequisite is a healthy spirit of curiosity and adventure.
Regardless of age or skill level you will find that our expeditions offer enough flexibility to make your experience with us safe and rewarding. We will show you proper sea kayaking technique and water safety before leaving the beach. And your expert guides will be with you throughout the adventure to give you pointers and improve your skills.
