Australian East Coast

I’ve had a bit of a search and not really found what I’m looking for -

I’m after some hot tips on good Aus East Coast canoeing spots for 3-4 days of Canoe Camping, I need something for beginners - no rapids.

If there was something where you could in/out from the same spot that’d be nice, but it’s not the end of the world if we have to take two cars and play shuttle.

What State were you thinking about?

NSW Ideally.

I reckon you’ll be well served by putting your query to the kayak clubs in NSW.

I’ll have a look. It seems they mostly use facebook. Which is a shame, because it doesn’t seem like it would be that hard to have their own websites and host info that is accessible/searchable.

I guess a Facebook page is free but websites cost for domain name registration and hosting. Good luck in your quest.

Free indeed…

Anyway, https://rivercanoeclub.org.au/ has a site, with some neat trip reports and things on it that can help paint a picture of a paddling spot without having to go and do recon.

I seem to be in the same situation. I’m keen to get into multi day tripping.

Have you seen this book yet? I just got it last Father’s Day. It’s brilliant, although so far it seems to detail shorter day trips. I haven’t gotten far into it yet, but it’s a good quality publication and very well laid out :thinking:
