Sunset and Stars Kayak Tour

Discover the magic of a sunset and stars kayak tour on Wallagoot Lake

The Sunset and Stars Kayak Tour is the Sapphire Coast’s newest adventure—an unforgettable way to connect with wild nature, coastal wildlife, and the brilliant night sky. Launching into the calm waters of Wallagoot Lake, this immersive journey seamlessly blends a golden sunset paddle with a gourmet lakeside supper and a magical night-paddling experience.

Highlights
  • Glide past a thriving bird haven at golden hour.
  • Gather on the shoreline to indulge in a premium platter featuring local artisan Tilba cheeses.
  • Experience the magic of underwater lights, transforming the shallow waters into a glowing theater of darting prawns and drifting jellyfish.
  • All kayaking and safety equipment supplied
  • $1 from every booking is donated directly to South Coast Wildlife Rescue.
Twilight on Wallagoot Lake

Launch from the historic sailing club into a pristine wetland haven. As you glide across calm, glassy waters, you’ll encounter black swans and pelicans. Keep watch along the sandy dunes at dusk, where wild kangaroos frequently emerge to graze by the water’s edge. (

Sunset Over the Water

Watch the Sapphire Coast sky transform into a brilliant canvas of gold and crimson as the sun dips below the horizon. Immersed in the tranquil evening chorus of frogs and nesting shorebirds, this peaceful twilight paddle offers a deeply relaxing connection to wild nature.

Gourmet Lakeside Supper

After soaking in the sunset colors, step ashore for an intimate lakeside supper. Indulge in a generous platter of premium, locally crafted Tilba cheeses, crisp crackers, and fresh seasonal fruit, perfectly complemented by a selection of refreshing juices and comforting, warming winter drinks.

Starlight & Underwater Lights

As darkness falls, your kayak transforms into an underwater spotlight. Illuminate a hidden world of darting prawns, shimmering fish, and jellyfish drifting like glowing lanterns beneath your paddle, all while a magnificent blanket of stars scatters across the pristine night sky overhead.
