Yes is the short answer. All of Aussie Yaks tours are designed for leisure, family friendly fun. Lets not forget you are not in a lake so their is a current to contend with along with wind chop depending on conditions but Aussie Yaks doesn’t take risk’s so if the conditions aren’t safe you’ll be offered rescheduling and if that isn’t possible full refund available.
We provide your kayak, paddle and life vest, we’ll also provide instruction and direction. We do however encourage people dress appropriately with light weight clothing avoiding dark colours and water shoes are a good option. It’s essential you bring water (Aussie Mike often has bottled water for sale) for hydration. It is Mandatory that someone in your party brings a phone in case of emergency (dry bags available for rent upon request).
Due to extreme weather conditions rescheduling and cancellations unfortunately do occur. Firstly we’ll try to reschedule but let me reassure you that if you don’t paddle you’ll get a 100% refund.
