Hire Canoes, Kayaks, Body Boards, Stand Up Paddle Boards - something for everyone !
Enjoy this pristine section of the Margaret River from the Rivermouth upstream. There are no motor boats here and no vehicle access to this section of the river, so you can paddle along in absolute peace for up to 3km. 

The mouth of the river opens for a short period each year and freshens the river up, but for most of the year it is more like a beautiful long lake with no strong river currents.

If you are looking for a more relaxed activity,  kayak, canoe and stand up paddle hire is available so you can paddle at your own pace up the lovely Margaret River.  A great activity for all ages. You will love it!

Canoes: Canadian style canoes are used where the users sit on seats inside the craft. These are popular with families and other tourists as you can stay dry in them. All 4 canoes are licensed to sit a maximum of 3 people. A single blade canoe paddle is provided for each user.
 
Kayaks: These are a sit-on-top self-draining craft. They are ideal for windy conditions and beginners as they are easy to paddle and particularly stable. The JPSA fleet contains 6 single and 10 double seat kayaks. A double blade kayak paddle is provided for each user. 

 Stand Up Paddleboards: Two 11’6” fibreglass SUPs are available for hire. They are designed for use on flat water rather than ocean going. Two 11’ inflatable SUPs are also available for beginners to take advantage of their extra stability and ease of use. 

 Body boards: these are sturdy foam boards that are fun to use in the whitewash. 

 Safety Equipment: PDF Type 2 Life jackets of all sizes are provided free of charge.

We recently utilised Margaret River Kayaks and Canoes in Margaret River for our year 11/12 outdoor education camp. From the very beginning planning stages for the camp, Josh was incredibly helpful in communicating with us to help make this happen. Josh communicated very clearly, was more than happy to answer any questions we had, and provide any resource we requested or needed through the Department of education policies and even gave the school a great deal. Josh is a very enthusiastic individual who is clearly passionate about the river and it definitely rubbed off on the kids. His knowledge on the rivers amazing history - particularly the Aboriginal culture of the river and surrounding areas, was very educational and the kids highly valued this session. I would highly recommend Margaret River Kayaks and Canoes to anyone who’s thinking of paddling in Margaret River, or any school group looking for a company to go with. Thank you very much to Josh for the wicked experience, Freo College loved it and we will be back in future years! Thanks

Really well run and friendly operation. Good choice of kayaks and canoes and Sarah was very helpful in explaining which would be best. We had a lovely morning paddling the Margaret River which was so beautiful when it narrowed and meandered through bush. Can thoroughly recommend this activity.

These guys are the best! True locals who share their place with care and respect, fun yet super professional. Clear indications and recommendations before heading off, friendly prices, equipment in perfect conditions. Avoid those overcrowded tours, this is the best way to enjoy the Margaret River!
