What can I do on the River?
There is plenty you can explore from The Rowers Club that it can be a bit hard to decide. Below you will find some suggested paddles within easy reach during a one or two hour voyage. And so much more for an extended trip.
Follow one of our interactive maps, or come on one of our guided tours.
Away from it all
Hire a canoe or kayak and paddle away. Paddling from Kendrick Park, it easy to reach into the heart of Wolli Creek, which, though surrounded by the city is a secluded journey through overhanging Mangroves. You will feel so far away. You can go for an hour or all day. Take one of our snacking or picnic packs and let the river bank glide past.
