  The experience was great! The guide let me set the pace, so we finished in about 3 hours. The weather was amazing, we were surrounded by moon jellies, and the views were great too. It was very calm out on the water. I think this tour is best for outdoorsey folks who like to be active.

  It was amazing! The paddle was a good length - not too long but still a good workout. Same with the hike up to the waterfall. The view at the top was amazing and the guide proided a very delicious and healthy lunch.

  This is my favourite paddle with Sydney Kayak McCarrs Creek & Lovett Bay were beautiful & calm making this a really pleasant paddle with friends celebrating birthdays. Sam provided an extra special lunch including birthday & coffee at the top of the waterfall. Such a great day ♥️

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

• Sydney at its beautiful best

  This paddle has a bit of everything Sydney has to offer: glorious bush, amazing real estate to ogle, beautiful views and a swim if you so wish. I went for a bit of birthday indulgence and enjoyed every minute, even the steep climb up to Lovett Bay waterfall, lugging a bag of supplies. There wasn't enough water for a shower but it was an absolute delight to have a picnic lunch on the rocks, listening to the water gurgle. On the way back, we had a swim in the bay before the paddle back to McCarr's creek reserve, past boats of all sizes and descriptions. Sam is a terrific host and guide. No 1 rule is to stay safe and No 2 is to have fun. We managed both of those in spades.

  The paddle from McCarrs to Lovett Bay was beautiful & serene. A gorgeous day in unspoiled Pittwater . Inspiring walk up the bush track , across the creek & out to sit at the top of the waterfall for lunch & stunning views.

  Iconic views of Sydney’s Pittwater combined with serene bushland, waterfalls and a gourmet lunch, this paddle is not to be missed! Starting from McGarr’s Creek, the paddle across to Lovatt Bay suits most fitness levels and offers a chance to explore one of Sydney’s most beautiful waterways and experience the serenity of the bush under the capable eye of Sydney Kayak’s expert guide, Sam. We paddled past pristine bushland and the offshore communities that ring Pittwater to arrive at Lovatt Bay, beached our kayaks on the sand and took a short bushwalk up the hill ( an easy climb) to see the most spectacular rock platform, complete with waterfall and pools, and truly amazing views. Sam prepared and served a delicious lunch with choices to suit all tastes. A little time to relax and contemplate the natural beauty of the area and then, reluctantly, time to walk back down to the beach for the return paddle – an all round wonderful day! Put this on your ‘must do’ list !

  What a great day! Thanks to the Team Sam and our guide Warren for making such a memorable experience for my wife's birthday. A great tour, plenty of time at sea and a rewarding nature walk and waterfall bath with a view and picnic lunch to remember. Highly recommended.
