A UNIQUE FEELING OF FREEDOM

A fun fitness session cycling on water. Our yellow performance waterbikes get up to 15 km/hr and offer a fun and a unique way to get your heart rate up on the water!  Grab a group of friends and exercise in the fresh air!

Waterbike tours are small, exclusive groups, with a private guide.  Personalised attention makes for a truly unique water adventure.
