Welcome – if you are looking for things to do in Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and the Hunter Region with family and friends we have plenty of great kayak adventures to suit everyone. The School of Yak – Kayak Training and Tours has been providing both locals and visitors to our beautiful city of Newcastle wonderful kayaking experiences, catering to all skill levels, for over ten years. If your time in the Newcastle and Lake Macquarie area is limited, we suggest you look at our Kayak Day Tours – here you will find kayak journeys from a few hours to a full day. Why not participate in a kayak tour on Newcastle Harbour or relax in the joyful paddling experience of the Hunter Wetlands National Park as you meander through hidden creeks and explore the islands of this important bird habitat. Our fully catered and guided, kayak camping expeditions allow you to explore the waterways of the Myall Lakes National Park over a weekend or for days at a time. You can participate in Kayak Training Programs to develop your skills or take a private lesson with an instructor.
