Cost is $5 per hire + $6 per half-hour use, so 2 hours would cost $29. Hopefully this better weather will last until the weekend. Regards Jon Hi Alana,

How much would this cost per kayak for 2-3 hours? And are students under the age of 16 able to use kayaks on the river without adult supervision? Because one of them has their Bronze Medallion. Thankyou. Hi, I was just wondering if there is around 5 standard single kayaks available for tomorrow? How much would this cost per kayak for 2-3 hours?

Unless you time it just right, you're probably going to have some adverse tidal flow either going or coming so add maybe 10 minutes to the round trip and then add a bit more if it is windy as canoeing is like cycling - even if you do a u-turn the wind is still in your face! Como is a fraction further so I'd allow 2.5 hours for the return trip. We do offer discounts for longer hire periods but please call for details as we have some midweek group books and will need to work around them. Similarly we can provide you with a mix of boats to suit your requirements according to the ages and physical strength of your party. I'd suggest you do not plan to tow someone except in a short term emergency; it is hard work! If you have someone who wants a kayak but may get tired, save a space in a larger canoe and then tow the empty kayak when necessary Hi Christine,
