Kayak Hire
 
Whether you would like to paddle for a couple of hours or a couple of weeks, if you would like a double
or a single, a sit-on-top or a sit-in kayak, Lazy Paddles can get you on the water.
 

Launch into the Myall River right at our door-step or let us deliver kayaks to the location of your choice. Paddle with the dolphins. Explore the mangrove forests and the Myall Lakes National Park. See amazing bird and marine life. Immerse yourself in nature. Watch the sunrise. Take a picnic breakfast or lunch. Camp out. Bring your camera and fishing rod.

 

Paddle as hard or as easy as you like when you hire a Lazy Paddles' kayak. Requiring only a few centimetres of water, with a kayak you can reach beautiful places that most watercrafts cannot, and without the noise and pollution and destructive wake associated with motor-boats. 

 

Kayaks are available for hire from sunrise to sunset. If you wake up early and see that it's nice, just give us a call (any time) and see if we can get you paddling. 

 

Here's a few suggestions...

 

Couple of hours:

Meet us at our office. We'll have a double or single kayak ready for you. We will launch you into the Myall River (in front of our office) and, depending on the conditions at the time, we will recommend different places to explore.

 

 

   Just 500m from Lazy Paddles HQ
 

Half day:

Call us for the tide times. A great option is to catch the turn of the tide - paddle up, or down, with the flow then paddle back with the flow. Explore the mouth of the river, or the "Lost World" of Monkey Jacket Creek.

Full day:
Take a picnic lunch with you. Leave your car by our office in Tea Gardens. We can deliver kayaks up stream so you can enjoy a wonderful paddle back to Tea Gardens. Or, you can paddle up stream from our water-front office and we can collect when and where you wish. It's very easy to navigate this beautiful trip and we will supply you with good maps, tips and advice as well. Great value - eg. From just $55 per person (based on 2 people in double kayak & transfer).

Multi-day:
For a great weekend or a few days away, utilise our kayak delivery service. For example, imagine having your kayaks ready and waiting for you on the river bank or by the lake shore. Leave your car with us in Tea Gardens. Enjoy a couple of days or more paddling your way and camping throughout some of the most beautiful waterways in the world, slowly making your way through the Myall Lakes National Park, back to our base by the river in Tea Gardens. We can provide you with maps and all the local information you need for a great weekend or few days paddling and we can help with itinerary suggestions to suit every level of fitness and time constraint.
