Woolloomooloo

OzPaddle Woolloomooloo tours start at our meeting point underneath Andrew Boy Charlton pool, near the Domain/Botanical Gardens. From here, we paddle past the naval ships at Garden Island, around the domain with stunning views to Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House. From here, we paddle to the Opera House (this is the closest you will be able to get on the water side). The view never ceases to amaze. We then paddle past Fort Denison and Clark Island where we relax and enjoy the peace of this tranquil place before heading back to Woolloomooloo where you can shower at the pool and perhaps grab some more food and/or a coffee at the great Café there.

Guided tours are available daily subject to weather (early mornings are best due to less wind).  Sophie Morgan runs Tours from our Woolloomooloo and Rose Bay locations.  Sophie holds the Flatwater Guide accreditation from Australian Canoeing and has many years of experience in leading tours around the Harbour.
