Sunrise Kayak and Coffee
Sydney's Most Awarded Kayak Company
Tour Highlights:
The Coffee: We brew your coffee fresh every morning right here at the SBK Eco Hub espresso machine. Whether you want a latte, tea, or hot chocolate, it’s served piping hot in a splash-proof eco-cup so you can enjoy it right there on the water.
The Calm: Unlike the busy daytime harbour, the water at sunrise is often flat and peaceful. It is the perfect time to spot marine life and hear the sounds of the morning.
The Photos: You don't need to risk your phone. Our guides carry professional cameras to capture high-quality photos of you with the icons in the background.
What You Can Expect
Our friendly team will meet you at 1 Railway Avenue, just back from Lavender Bay boat ramp (look for the life jackets and your friendly guides). After getting fitted with a life jacket and running through a safety briefing, we head out onto the water just as the light begins to change.
A Seasonal Experience: We follow the sun to give you the best possible view.
- Summer: The sun rises early, allowing us to paddle deep under the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
- Cooler Months: We chase the warm rays by heading towards Goat Island or Sawmillers Reserve, bathing in the morning light with iconic views along the way.

Frequently Asked Questions
View the entire FAQWhat if I haven’t kayaked before?
Our kayak tours and Sydney Harbour Highlights Tour are a great way to experience kayaking for the first time. Kayak Guides will brief you on safety and demonstrate the best paddling techniques, ensuring you have a great time out on the harbour. Let us know if you are a ‘newbie’ on the paddle questionnaire, so we can give you all the pro tips before you hit the water.
What do I need to bring?
Just like a trip to the beach you will need sunscreen, water, hat, sunglasses and comfortable kayaking clothes that you don’t mind getting a little wet from paddle splash.
Thongs/flip flops are ok in the kayak, but water shoes are highly recommended to protect you from oyster shells on the beach.
Do you have double kayaks?
We use single kayaks which are extremely stable, comfortable and great for both beginners and experienced paddlers.
Never fear, if you fall behind or get tired, our guides will happily give you a rest by towing you along behind their kayaks. (This option is great for kids, although adults have been known to take us up on the offer too!).
