SYDNEY HARBOUR KAYAK TOURS
See Sydney Harbour the Way It Was Meant to Be Seen — From the Water
Paddle past the Sydney Opera House, see the Harbour Bridge from the water and discover hidden beaches and coastline you simply can't reach any other way. For over 20 years, OzPaddle has given thousands of paddlers a view of Sydney Harbour no bus tour, ferry or photo op can match.
Sydney Harbour, Up Close
There's the Sydney Harbour everyone sees from the shore — and then there's the Sydney Harbour you feel, hear and paddle through. OzPaddle's Sydney Harbour kayak tours put you eye-level with two of the world's most iconic landmarks, the Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge, while sea eagles circle overhead and the water laps gently against sandstone cliffs that most visitors never get close to.
This isn't a sightseeing tour. It's a genuine Sydney Harbour experience — guided, safe, and unforgettable — that's been perfected over 20+ years on the water.
Just a 10 minute walk from central Sydney, we are located under the Andrew Boy Charlton pool near The Domain. Our location is absolutely unique, as we are able to kayak right up to the Sydney Opera House and behind it with amazing views of the city and harbour bridge!
Our guide – Sophie – has over 16 years experience leading tours on Sydney Harbour and is passionate about paddling and photography – meaning that you get both the most experienced guide on the harbour and get to take home a unique set of beautiful photos from your experience!
We include photos in all our tours and you will leave with the most spectacular photos you could have right up in front of Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge – taken from the water!
Please note, we are the only tour company which has the jurisdiction to take you paddling in this part of the harbour.
