Brisbane Water Paddlers are a group of people who enjoy social and competitive paddling activities on the numerous beautiful sheltered waterways of the Central Coast.

Social paddles occur on alternate Saturday mornings from the same venue generally starting at 7 am followed by breakfast and coffee at a local cafe.

Races are conducted over courses of various lengths, dependant on skill and fitness levels, with both handicap and group starts. A mixture of events are conducted over the course of the year including relay races, round island races and an annual combined race with other paddling clubs from the region.

Members are active in regular marathon, harbour and ocean paddling events around the state, including the Myall Classic and the Hawkesbury Classic.

From the ripples of Davistown waterfront to the nation’s capital Canberra 🌊🏦

Earlier this month BWP paddled up a storm at the 2026 Canoe Marathon National Championships.

Our small club represented proudly, competed hard, and brought back a stack of shiny new medals with thrilling race stories to go with them.

The paddlers embraced the challenge of the freshwater course and demanding portage sections, pushing through some tough and exciting racing across the weekend.

A special mention to Gil and all the members who rolled up their sleeves to volunteer in various roles. Your efforts helped the weekend run smoothly for everyone involved 👏

Well done to all athletes, we’re proud of you representing our club on the national stage and having a great time while you were doing it! 🏆
