Dragon boating is easy to learn and caters for a broad range of fitness levels and age groups.
The most common reason people join in this sport is for fun.
Benefits include improved fitness, friendships formed in a team sport and the thrill of competition.
However, not everyone competes, paddlers add their own richness to dragon boating.
ALL are welcome and encouraged.

Sunday 9.30 -10.30am Social paddlers

See you on the water!
NIGHT PADDLING
In Summer we paddle and observe sting rays, fish, bird life and enjoy balmy evenings on the lake.
With the finish of daylight savings, night paddling paddling under the stars is amazing and we encourage those who haven’t tried it yet to see what you are missing!!
ZEN DBC provide night paddlers with PFDs to wear as a way of maintaining safety and visibility on the water…they also help keep you warm on those brisk nights. (or feel free to bring your own PFD if you prefer.)
