Water Sports

The water is one of our favourite playgrounds. Whether that’s the ocean, beaches, lakes, rivers or harbours, nothing compares to the exhilarating feeling of being out on the water. It only gets better when you consider all the different types of water sports there are to make the water the most fun place to be. The options are seemingly endless, including everything from surfing to jet skiing, white water rafting, scuba diving, and plenty more in between.

If you’re interested in getting a bit wet and wild and looking for aquatic activities across Australia, you’re in the right place. We have a huge range of water sport activities and outdoor adventures right here at Adrenaline, so finding something that excites you is easy.

We have something for everyone, whether you’re into extreme water sports like jet boating, swimming with sharks, jet pack and fly boarding, kiteboarding or windsurfing, we’ve got you covered. If you’re into more laid back water sport activities, you might enjoy things like kayaking, scuba diving, surfing, and stand up paddle boarding. And if you’re looking to get out on the water but actually stay dry, we have cruises, sailing, fishing experiences, whale watching and more to suit you.

There are so many different types of water sports, so you’ll definitely never get bored, and you might never experience them all. But you can try! Here are some of our most popular water sports in Australia to inspire your next aquatic venture. 

• Surfing: Surfing is Australia’s official favourite pastime for a good reason. It’s the perfect combination of tranquility and action as you wait on the water to try to catch the perfect waves. At Adrenaline, you’ll find a great range of surfing lessons to help get you started or refine your skills. You’ll also find some surfing tours that can take you to some of the best surf breaks in the country - and the world.

• Jet skiing: Riding a jet ski can be as intense or low key as you want it to be, and we have adventures to suit every style of rider at Adrenaline. You could explore the Whitsundays on a jet ski, or go head to head with mates on a jet ski race course. Whatever you decide to do, you’ll find the freedom of zooming around the water irresistible. 

• Kayaking: This is a great activity that everyone can easily get involved in, so it can be ideal if you’re looking for a family-friendly adventure. Our kayaking tours take you around all the most spectacular waterways in Australia, and even up close and personal with marine wildlife!

• Stand up paddle boarding: If you’re keen to get active but still enjoy the tranquility of the water, SUP boarding is the perfect water sport. It’s easy to pick up and it’s a very fun way to explore.

• Scuba diving: Of all the underwater sports, scuba diving is definitely the most exciting. Nothing else can give you access to the bustling marine world quite like this, and Australia’s colourful wildlife and reefs make it the best place to go diving.
