Australia’s Best Commercial Sea Kayaking and Touring Destinations

I have been sea kayaking since 2008 and have fallen in love with the sport. I started as a whitewater paddler in 1994, but over time I discovered that the ocean offers everything I loved about rivers—adventure, challenge, exploration, and the opportunity to connect with nature and people.

I still enjoy paddling rivers and spending time in my favourite craft, an open Canadian canoe. However, sea kayaking has become my passion and life, and Australia offers some of the finest paddling destinations in the world.

The locations featured here are places I have paddled, places I dream of paddling, and destinations that belong on every paddler's bucket list.

Get out and explore your world.

Why Australia?
Australia is one of the world's great sea kayaking destinations.

Australia's mainland coastline stretches approximately 35,877 kilometres. When Tasmania and the nation's 8,000-plus offshore islands are included, the total coastline extends to almost 60,000 kilometres, making it the sixth-longest coastline in the world.

From tropical reefs and island archipelagos to rugged cliffs, sheltered bays, remote wilderness coastlines, and world-famous beaches, Australia offers endless opportunities for sea kayakers of all skill levels.

Nearly 85% of Australians live within 50 kilometres of the coast, highlighting the importance of the ocean to our culture and way of life.
