CANOE TRIPS

Groups of canoeists will be guided down the lovely and peaceful Burrum River. Those interested should phone the office to book in groups or join a party of other adventurers.The maximum group number is sixteen persons.

Come and join in on a tranquil canoeing adventure on the Burrum River. Departure is from 805 Burrum Heads Rd to Burrum Heads, or upstream depending on tides and winds . The canoe ride takes approximately 4 hours over a distance of roughly 18km.

Going with the tide, in the absence of any strong headwind, makes for a easy ride . There will be opportunities to stop, relax and take it all in. One is sure to see some interesting animal life such as eagles, turtles and dugongs.

All the canoes are 2 seater so partners will be able to share a canoe.
