Every day is a good time to head out on the ocean waters in Australia with ideal weather conditions gracing the shorelines all year round. And with plenty of beaches to choose from, the opportunities for adrenaline-pumping ocean adventures are endless. Here are some of the most popular water sports you can enjoy in Australia.
Surfing
This comes as a no-brainer, with surfing being one of the most loved pastimes in Australia. Even if you haven’t mastered the art of conquering the waves, it’s never too late to start, especially if you’re staying at a hotel near the beach such as those by Avani Hotels & Resorts. Plenty of surfing beaches in Australia offer guidance and lessons to ensure that you’ll be riding the waves in no time.
Kayaking
Kayaking is another popular water sport and a great alternative if you aren’t too steady on a surfboard. While you can certainly enjoy a kayaking adventure on the ocean waters, you can kayak along any water body including lakes and rivers.
Stand-Up Paddleboarding
If you’re keen to develop or test your balancing skills, stand-up paddleboarding is the way to go. As a bonus, you’ll enjoy beautiful views of the shoreline and the horizon. Stand-up paddleboards are easily available for rent around Australia and the sport is fairly easy to master on your own.
Kite Surfing
This water sport requires plenty of upper body strength and nerves of steel if you are to brave the winds. But those who dare step out of the best hotels in Australia for a kite surfing adventure will enjoy the reward of a great workout and an exhilarating day out on the ocean is well worth the effort.
