Sydney: Sunrise Escape – Middle Harbour Kayaking Experience

Start your day in the most spectacular way possible on our Middle Harbour SUNRISER Sea Kayak Tour—a guided sunrise experience that reveals Sydney at its calmest and most beautiful. Paddling in the protected waters of Middle Harbour, a stunning offshoot of Sydney Harbour, this tour explores a variety of scenic locations depending on the conditions. We launch just before sunrise and glide across glassy water as the sun rises over Sydney Heads, bathing the harbour in golden light. We may paddle toward Grotto Point Lighthouse, slip into the peaceful coves of Chinaman’s Beach or Cobblers Beach, or cruise across to Balmoral. Wildlife sightings are common, and the early morning stillness makes this a truly special experience. We pause at a beautiful shoreline spot to enjoy a hot coffee and a light breakfast, including fresh fruit and juice. We use premium double sea kayaks—lightweight, stable, & smooth—perfect for relaxed touring. We are a proud members of the Tourism NSW Hall of Fame.
