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.
Opening Hours!
Our hub operates across three key periods this season: Summer Holidays, the Summer School Term, and the Easter School Holidays.
While we strive to maintain consistent opening hours, Mandurah’s weather can be unpredictable and may result in rapid changes to our schedule. The safety and enjoyment of our guests are our top priorities, so we will never send you out on the water in unsafe conditions. Certain activities, like water bikes and SUPs, may be impacted by windier weather, while kayaking might still be available. We carefully assess conditions to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all.
If you have a booking, rest assured we’ll contact you directly if there are any changes. For general updates, keep an eye on our Facebook page, where we’ll post any adjustments to our hours or activities.
Thank you for your understanding and flexibility—we look forward to seeing you out on the water!
Please note that we are not open on Christmas Day or Good Friday!
