This tour is designed for those who may not have paddled before so it's easy for just about everyone! Explore the magnificent limestone formations of the Blackwall Reach cliffs of Perth that tower 8 metres above us as we paddle slowly from East Fremantle into Bicton Bay and then along the cliff face through crystal clear waters..
Learn a little about the first Australians who lived in the area (Djoondalup or Point Walter) and the first explorers from European nations that settled the Swan River Colony. We continue and explore along the riverbanks through the Bicton foreshore which is full of interesting boats and houses that over look the river. We spend time below the cliffs on our kayaks enjoying the natural beauty before paddling back to our launch spot.
