There’s no better way to explore Hobart’s picturesque habourside than by Kayak!

Highlights

  • Guided kayak tour of Hobart's picturesque harbour
  • Freindly and knowledgeable local guide
  • Fish & chips included for lunch
  • No kayaking experience required
  • A fun and unique way to experience Hobart!

The perfect fusion of fun, relaxation and exploration, the Hobart City Kayak Tour is the ultimate way to experience Hobart’s bustling waterfront and all its charm!

During the 2.5 hour tour, we’ll explore the waterfront at a relaxed pace with plenty of time to explore and take in the surrounding views.

We’ll cruise the crystal clear waters past the lively working waterfront, getting up close and personal to tall wooden sailing ships and uncovering a unique perspective into the heart of Hobart.

The water is clear enough to get a view of our native sea stars, and if you’re lucky we may even see Sammy, our friendly resident Seal!

For a taste of the true local experience, we’ll pop by the city’s famous floating punts for a classic bite to eat of fish & chips - you'll enjoy them straight from your kayak for a meal with a view.

The Hobart City Kayak Tour is the perfect way to add a splash of fun to your trip to Tasmania!

New Years Eve 2019 for 2020

Great experience - best fish and chips available at Constitution Dock on the last day of 2019 - in a kayak surrounded by every manner of deep-water racing yacht. We missed Comanche and Wild Oats 11, they had already left, but Black Jack was still there is all its racing-muscle and beautiful glory. The kayak and guide were superb. Thanks Tim. A really great way to experience Hobart.

Something different

The weather initially was fab and its a lovely paddle into the bay, briefly turned nasty on way back which took, some effort to paddle against the wind, but only for a short time, ultimately, Id definitely do again, but I'm more likely to be more picky about my weather :)
