    Amazing experience! The kayaking alone is fun and the sights are beautiful but there's a very high chance of seeing dolphins which makes it even more special. If no dolphins are seen then they allow you to rebook anytime in the future for free! The staff are all amazing and very funny - can't fault anything with this trip

    A really fun couple of hours paddling around Byron Bay. So lucky to have been in amongst the dolphins. Great experience.

    I enjoyed the event even if it was more by luck than design. I’m in my 60s and a strong swimmer including open water so confident in the sea. I have never kayaked before and although the event description said no experience required I hadn’t appreciated the stamina required to paddle in the strong, gusty off shore winds we experienced. As a solo participant I shared a kayak with one of the three guides who looked after me very well. We saw dolphins at a distance, rode waves and we all made it back to shore (some with assistance) so all good on this occasion. My advice before booking is consider fitness, strength, stamina and confidence in the water and the possibility of being paired with someone of less ability. Cape Byron Kayaks don’t assess abilities and everyone is required to sign a waiver.

    I was disappointed after this canoe trip. It was announced as an attraction with the possibility of seeing marine fauna. In fact it was just paddling . Admittedly, after we had seen nothing we were offered another date for free , but we no longer had the day off for this. This was weak compared to expectations.
