Onkaparinga Kayaking

​Trade walking shoes for a kayak to explore hidden coves, observe abundant birdlife, and experience the serenity of gliding through tranquil waters. Paddling the Onkaparinga River takes you to hidden gems rarely seen from land. Navigate under bridges, through native bushland fringing the riverbank, and secluded spots perfect for a picnic or a refreshing dip. This is a chance to truly connect with nature.

The Onkaparinga River caters to paddlers of all experience levels. For a leisurely half-day adventure, embark on a 14km round trip paddle upstream from the sea to the historic town of Old Noarlunga. This scenic journey allows you to soak in the beauty of the river and its surroundings. The more adventurous, multi-day kayaking expeditions are also possible. Plan your route, pack your camping gear, and embark on an unforgettable journey of exploration.

One of the best things about kayaking the Onkaparinga River is the feeling of discovery while in your very own little oasis. Paddle around bends to reveal secluded coves and hidden beaches. Find your own private paradise and enjoy a moment of peace and tranquility amidst the natural beauty.
