Rent a stand up paddle board and paddle the gorgeous waters of Manly’s North Harbour. Take your choice between idling around the moored yachts or exploring further afield.
We have a range of boards in our fleet that are suitable for all experience levels. Previous paddling experience is preferred but not required. If you have not SUPped before why not book a lesson with one of our instructors to get the most out of your experience!
Our fleet of SUPs has been specifically designed to have great stability in flat waters. All our standard SUPs are soft board construction which means low impact – ideal for first timers!

What a super experience. Ella was fabulous. Really professional and clear with her communications. We felt safe at all times and most importantly had great fun. Easy set up, friendly staff, thoroughly recommend ! If you have a few hours free in manly and have never tried it before, we would absolutely advise a lesson with these guys.

Had a great paddle over to Quarantine Bay, despite the weather. It started to rain and the onshore breeze picked up right as I started. Luckily, Craig had lent me a wind jacket, so I was very comfortable, and got a great workout. The rain stopped and the wind died down for the return paddle, and got off the water right before the next shower came through. Had a great chat about SUPball. Nice boards, great location

Staff were amazingly helpful! After being unexpectedly stranded alone on my holidays, I had to plan all my activities on the fly- the staff at Manly Kayak Centre were amazing and called their freelance SUP instructors and managed to book me a lesson the next day! I am so grateful for their above and beyond service! My instructor Vikki was also wonderful and friendly and I had the best time! Thank you all around

Always an amazing experience. Beautiful Day, Beautiful Location and the most supportive team. A first time SUP boarder got the coaching needed to feel totally at ease and get out on the water. Love the Manly Kayaks Team

A wonderful day out - we rented 2 SUP boards for 3 hours, the team was extremely friendly and helpful, great boards and the scenery - just gorgeous!
We picked up some litter swimming in the water - would be great to incentivise others to do the same, eg by offering a 5% discount or so for the next booking :)
Cheers and we look forward to our next experience!

Great spot to do SUP, kids are 12 and 10 and the perfect age to get out there. Staff at Manly Kayaks are very friendly and booking was super easy. Thanks for some lockdown fun.

Being mature ( 66 y.o. ) ' first-timer' ( on paddle board ) was greatly impressed by professionalism of Manly Kayak Centre staff especially Rinardo who is a great teacher giving plenty of superb tips on enjoying the first session ( and didn't even have a splash into the sea ..)
