White-Water Kayaking on the Yarra River

Experience grade 2 whitewater kayaking from the seat of a two-man inflatable kayak! Tackle Bobs rock and pinball rapid!

Challenge yourself as you paddle down the rapids whilst negotiating the twists and turns of the mighty Yarra! This kayaking adventure is so much fun you will be smiling all day long! With the added convenience of being so close to Melbourne, it is a great trip for some action close to home!

Supercharge your day on Melbourne’s very own Yarra river. The experienced team from the Adventure Merchants will kit you out with the latest gear and kayak and demonstrate how to paddle and steer the kayak with ease! Then it’s two fantastic adrenaline-packed hours on grade 2 rapids.

Be prepared for more than a little splashing as you paddle through the rapids and breaking waves carving their way through gorges and valleys full of native bush land. The kayaks we use are very stable and forgiving so it is suitable for total beginners to navigate their way down the rapids.
