Get your kids outside , active , making friends and having heaps of FUN!
Become a part of our fantastic kids kayaking club, where young explorers aged 6 to 17 can jump into the thrilling world of paddle sports! Our program focuses on skill development through engaging games, building confidence, forging friendships, and discovering the environment—all while having a great time! We’ve structured the club into groups to guarantee that everyone learns and progresses with others of the same age when they are beginners and then by skill level as they progress.

Beginners learn flat water kayaking strokes, basic decision making and self and partner rescues on sit on top kayaks on the Barwon River in Geelong.

Improvers transition into sit in kayaks where they learn more advanced kayaking strokes, how to lead their peers on the water and develop their confidence in capsize rescues, they also get the opportunity to try out these skills in more challenging flat water locations.

Intermediate and Advanced paddlers start using spray decks, learn moving water skills and paddle a variety of water bodies including rapids, surf and ocean.

Please note that a try out or invitation from the beginners groups is required to join the improver, intermediate and advanced groups.
