Overview

Hit the water in a kayak or canoe and soak up the relaxed coastal vibe of the Geelong and Bellarine region, or ride the waves on a stand-up paddleboard.

Kayaking and canoeing

Join a tour and let a local show you the best of the region or paddle along the pristine coastline at your own pace. Bring your own gear or hire what you need in Geelong or at local operators around the bay.

Stand-up paddleboarding

Take a stand-up paddleboard class and get your skills up before you head out on your own. Lessons for beginners are available at the Geelong Waterfront, Ocean Grove main beach, Barwon Heads, Portarlington and Queenscliff.
