Where to Paddle

Explore the beautiful Western Australian waterways with us.


Paddlers going to remote areas of the national parks may wish to consult DBCA rangers. They can provide info which may affect the planning of a trip, eg., road closures, water levels of rivers/inlets. They welcome feedback – if you discover a fallen tree across the road or other conditions about which the rangers should know they urge you to notify them – even car break-ins (these are not frequent!). Also it’s a good idea to notify them of your plans – eg. to aid emergency evacuation in case of fire or flood! They can also advise if your favourite ‘remote’ camping spot is already full of fishermen!
