An introductory waterbike experience, great for families with young

children who want to give it a try before embarking on a longer
adventure!  Or those who want to get a group together for a quick spin on
the Swan with fantastic up close views of the City, South Perth & Kings
Park. However be warned - 30 minutes is never enough!!

Sit back, relax and take in the stunning views of the City Skyline and
South Perth foreshore as you glide along the Swan on a waterbike.  A new
and unique perspective and and exciting new water adventure for most ages and
abilities.

 You'll see that Perth is best viewed from the water and that
riding a waterbike gives you an awesome vantage point to enjoy the city
skyline.

Departing from the South Perth foreshore next to the Narrows, 

Guided Waterbike rides are small, exclusive groups, with a private
guide.  Personalised attention makes for a truly unique water adventure.

We have access to some amazing spots on City waters and for that reason
all our rides are guided. Our guide is well skilled at being as discreet or
interactive as you like.  We pride ourselves on providing an experience
tailored to our client's needs.

Safe, stable and incredibly easy to use, waterbikes are a whole lot of
fun.  Cruising at a leisurely pace, there's plenty of time to take in the
incredible views, stop for some iconic photos, and learn a thing or two along
the way (if you feel inclined)

There's also the opportunity to go really fast if you want to!

Regular stops to take in the sites and if you like, ask us
questions  about the landmarks, history, and flora and fauna of the
beautiful Swan and the virbrant and ever changing City of Perth.  Some
FANTASTIC photo opportunities.
