Are there guided sunrise kayak tours in Sydney?
Our fun, friendly and experienced kayak guides will meet you at Lavender Bay boat ramp (just look for the bright kayaks). You’ll be fitted with a life jacket and will be given a safety briefing and kayak instruction, before heading out on to the water to watch the sun hit the horizon beneath the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Wind can create choppy conditions on lakes, making paddling difficult and increasing the risk of capsizing. Lightning is especially dangerous on open water, as kayaks and paddles can act as conductors. Always check the weather forecast before heading out, and be prepared to return to shore if conditions worsen.Avoid kayaking in extreme conditions such as strong winds, thunderstorms, or dense fog. If the weather changes while you’re on the water, return to shore immediately.
