Hire Services

Welcome to the Waterways Adventure Hub, Down Under Discoveries' eco-friendly pop-up hub offering non-powered adventures on Mandurah's stunning waterways during the summer season. Here, you can explore the Mandurah Estuary, Peel-Harvey Estuary, Mandjar Bay, Dolphin Quay, and beyond—all while treading lightly on the environment. Nestled in the Peel Region of Western Australia, with a commitment to preserving the natural beauty and wildlife of the region, our hub offers a range of hire options including kayaks, SUP boards, water bikes, and adventure gear, all designed to help you connect with nature in a sustainable way. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful paddle, a thrilling ride, or a well-equipped hike, we have the perfect adventure waiting for you.

With our kayaks and stand-up paddleboards, you can chart your own course through this breathtaking environment, uncovering hidden gems like Stingray Point & the Venetian Canals. For those looking to add a bit more excitement, our Chilliboat Waterbike hire offers a unique blend of cycling and boating, allowing you to cruise through the water with ease. Experience the joy of ‘walking on water’ as you pedal through the serene surroundings, all while keeping fit and staying eco-friendly. Whether you’re racing a friend or simply soaking in the scenery, our waterbikes provide a fun and innovative way to connect with nature.

At the Waterways Adventure Hub, we believe in making outdoor exploration accessible to everyone. That’s why we offer top-of-the-line Adventure Gear for hire, including ultralight backpacks, trekking poles, satellite devices, and Personal Locator Beacons (PLBs). Our gear is perfect for those who want to try before they buy or need high-quality equipment without the hefty investment. Whether you're embarking on a multi-day hike or a challenging trek, our gear ensures you’re fully equipped and ready for any adventure.
