Hire Canoes, Kayaks, Body Boards, Stand Up Paddle Boards - something for everyone !
Enjoy this pristine section of the Margaret River from the Rivermouth upstream. There are no motor boats here and no vehicle access to this section of the river, so you can paddle along in absolute peace for up to 3km.
The mouth of the river opens for a short period each year and freshens the river up, but for most of the year it is more like a beautiful long lake with no strong river currents.
If you are looking for a more relaxed activity, kayak, canoe and stand up paddle hire is available so you can paddle at your own pace up the lovely Margaret River. A great activity for all ages. You will love it!
Canoes: Canadian style canoes are used where the users sit on seats inside the craft. These are popular with families and other tourists as you can stay dry in them. All 4 canoes are licensed to sit a maximum of 3 people. A single blade canoe paddle is provided for each user.
Kayaks: These are a sit-on-top self-draining craft. They are ideal for windy conditions and beginners as they are easy to paddle and particularly stable. The JPSA fleet contains 6 single and 10 double seat kayaks. A double blade kayak paddle is provided for each user.
Stand Up Paddleboards: Two 11’6” fibreglass SUPs are available for hire. They are designed for use on flat water rather than ocean going. Two 11’ inflatable SUPs are also available for beginners to take advantage of their extra stability and ease of use.
Body boards: these are sturdy foam boards that are fun to use in the whitewash.
Safety Equipment: PDF Type 2 Life jackets of all sizes are provided free of charge.

Absolutely thrilled with our first-ever surfing lesson at Margaret River Surfing Academy! The instructors were not only highly skilled and safety focused, but they were also incredibly patient, making the experience enjoyable for both the adults and the kids in our group. Their passion for surfing and dedication to teaching shone through, creating a positive and memorable atmosphere. From mastering the basics to catching our first waves, the guidance was top-notch. We couldn't have asked for a better introduction to surfing. Kudos to the entire team at Margaret River Surfing Academy for an unforgettable day by the waves! 🏄‍♂️🌊

Had a blast with our instructor who was very positive and encouraging, it wasn’t a stiff or impersonal lesson and just adjusted according to how we were going which is perfect for this kind of experience. Loved it and will recommend all the time

Everything you'd want from a surf school. Safe, enthusiastic, knowledgeable and fun. They provided a wetsuit, board and wax. All you need is a towel and some zinc. My 12 year old loved it. Great guys with heaps of love for the sport that they want to share with you. Highly recommended.
