Description
Experience Sydney Harbour as the sun goes down with Sydney’s most awarded eco-tourism kayak operator.
As the city begins to slow down, join us for a relaxed guided paddle through the sheltered waters of Lavender Bay and Sydney Harbour. This small-group experience operates with a maximum ratio of 2 guides to 8 paddlers, creating a safe, welcoming and personalised experience for every paddler.
Your tour begins at Lavender Bay boat ramp, just a short walk from Milsons Point Station. After being fitted with a lifejacket, your guides will take you through a comprehensive paddling and safety briefing before launching onto the harbour in one of our stable, single kayaks. No prior kayaking experience is required.
From the water, you will experience Sydney from a completely different perspective. Paddle to the edge of the bay and see Luna Park, the towering Sydney Harbour Bridge, and breathtaking views of the Sydney Opera House and city skyline as day gently turns into evening.
Every sunset on Sydney Harbour is different. Some evenings deliver glowing skies painted pink and orange, while others offer soft clouds, sparkling reflections and calm harbour waters. That is part of the magic of being outdoors and immersed in nature in the heart of Sydney.
Along the way, your guides will share fascinating stories about Sydney Harbour and the people, history and hidden corners that have shaped it over time. From colourful local characters and iconic landmarks to the ever-changing harbour itself, every tour is a little different depending on the conditions and conversations along the way.
You will also visit our funded conservation projects, including the award-winning Living Seawalls, and hear about the incredible work being done by passionate ocean-loving organisations helping protect and restore Sydney Harbour for future generations.
As the city lights begin reflecting across the water, our colourful LED kayaks create a fun and memorable glow around the harbour, adding a little extra magic to the experience.
Your guide will also capture beautiful photos throughout the tour, which are sent to you afterwards at no extra cost, so you can stay present and simply enjoy the experience.
Whether you are visiting Sydney for the first time, planning a unique date night, celebrating something special, or simply looking for a peaceful evening outdoors, this experience offers an unforgettable way to connect with Sydney Harbour.
