What can I do on the River?

There is plenty you can explore from Kendrick Park or Ewan Park that it can be a bit hard to decide.  Below you will find some suggested paddles within easy reach during a one or two hour voyage. And so much more for an extended trip.

Follow one of our interactive maps, or come on one of our guided tours.

A canoe and kayak trip along the spectacular Wolli Creek makes for perfect family holiday activities. It is also a great way to focus on your wellness, health and fitness.

Away from it all

Hire a canoe or kayak and paddle away. Paddling from Kendrick Park, it easy to reach into the heart of Wolli Creek, which, though surrounded by the city is a secluded journey through overhanging Mangroves. You will feel so far away. You can go for an hour or all day. Take one of our snacking or picnic packs and let the river bank glide past.
