Frequently Asked Questions about Half Or Full Day Kayak Hire In Babinda

Should I choose a single or double kayak?

Both kayaks work fine on this creek. Some families with children prefer doubles if they are unsure of their childs capabilities. Although by the time kids are 12, they seem to cope quite well on their own. A double kayak is not really reccomended for two beginners as they are much longer and heavier which means they are harder to manouvre around logs etc.

We have found single kayaks easier to learn on as you quickly see the direct result of your actions, they are also much easier to manoeuvre. If sharing a double, it’s harder to work out what you are doing is right or wrong if your partner is doing something completely different (which they usually are!) If creek levels are low, the double kayaks will also bottom out before the single kayaks as they sit deeper in the water – we will recommend single kayaks if this is the case.

  • A hat, sunscreen and/or protective clothing against the sun.
  • Shoes which can get wet
  • Dry bags are available for hire if you wish to take personal effects and food/drink.
  • Snorkelling is also popular.
  • A bag to contain your possessions and to secure any loose items.
  • Sunglasses and lanyard to prevent you from losing them.
  • A mobile phone (if you have one)- that way you can phone us to come and pick you up when you reach the end (it’s easier than scheduling a pick-up time). We will supply you with a waterproof phone box.
  • Change of clothes – just in case you or somebody else decides you are going for a dip!
  • Something to eat for a lovely picnic on a beach along the way.
  • Please take care not to leave anything behind on your journey. A rubbish bag will be provided if needed.

To access the kayaks, you will need to climb down stairs and walk about 300 metres along the grassed creek bank (easy walk). Climbing into the kayaks is done either directly from concrete stairs leading into the water or from a shallow sand bank if the water level is normal. If you fall in whilst kayaking, you will need to be able to climb back on (usually by finding a shallow area or by taking the kayak to the creek edge and using the bank if the creek level is high).

On arrival at your pick-up point, help with lifting the kayaks onto the trailer is needed (single kayaks weigh around 18 – 20 kg distributed to two people).

Both pick-up points have a beached area to draw the kayaks easily from the water.
