Join us for an awesome day of kayaking and activities along the Brisbane River!

When: Thursday 12 December, 9:30am-3:00pm

This event is just for young carers (18-25) who support someone experiencing mental ill-health. Whether you’re up for some kayaking action or just want to relax with new friends under the gazebo, there’s something fun for everyone.

We get that being a young carer can feel tough and isolating. This event is all about giving you a break, connecting with others who get it, and having a good time in a relaxed, supportive space. Plus, we’ve got morning tea and lunch covered!

About the adventure

Adventure at Riverlife
Get ready to explore the Brisbane River in a whole new way! The Day Kayak Adventure lets you soak up the sunshine and take in stunning city views from the water. With the guidance of friendly, fully-qualified instructors, you’ll feel at ease as you learn new kayaking skills and enjoy a scenic adventure.

Depending on tide times, we’ll head towards the iconic Story Bridge or the vibrant South Bank. Either way, there will be plenty of picturesque sights and perfect photo opportunities along the way.

Kayak Experience
The adventure begins with a safety briefing and gear fitting, followed by a fun-filled kayaking session (90 minutes). Whether you’re a beginner or experienced kayaker, our expert guides will help you navigate the river and teach you some pro tips for mastering the sport!

For Non-Kayakers
If kayaking isn’t your thing, no problem! You can still enjoy the day with other fun activities, take in the stunning views, and connect with fellow participants while relaxing in the shade under the gazebo.
