Geelong Canoe Club is a thriving paddle sports club on the banks of the Barwon River, a few minutes from Geelong.

We provide facilities to a diverse range of paddlers and groups who are integral to the future of a variety of paddling disciplines – both recreational and competition.

New paddlers are always welcome and will be introduced to the facilities and surrounding waterways.

A fleet of beginner and intermediate club-owned craft is available for introductory session participants and club members to use.

Access to training facilities, allocated craft storage, meeting rooms and change facilities are open to members year round, 7 days a week.

Synergise Health and Fitness Centre is a community focussed gym which is also on-site and available exclusively to club members to join.

Geelong Canoe Club acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the land on which our site is located, the Wadawurrung People of the Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging, recognising their continuing connection to land, water, culture and community.

Geelong Canoe Club has a number of paddling experiences that will have your children, family and friends enjoy the outdoors, learn new skills and get to know the environment around the Barwon River. There's a program to suit everyone, all run by Paddle Australia qualified instructors. For those that already have a love of paddling or want to build on past programs there's the option of gifting a membership - a gift that keeps giving! · Read more
