This is a really fun paddle under the city lights, going up the Yarra from Yarra Edge Marina to Evan Walker bridge. It will be about 6kms all up.
We launch at 6.30pm SHARP, so please arrive early to set up your board and be ready to get paddle.
Although we won’t be paddling fast, this paddle is not suitable for first timers. We will be paddling under full darkness and there may be some boat wake, so you need to be a confident paddler.
Sorry, no children under 12 years old, and NO DOGS/PETS.
