Explore Broughty Ferry from a whole new perspective with Outdoor Explore, on a relaxed, small‑group kayak adventure along the beautiful River Tay Estuary near Dundee.
Launching from Broughty Ferry Beach, this guided tour invites you to slow down and truly experience the estuary’s changing landscapes, rich wildlife, and fascinating coastal history — all from the vantage point of the water. With expansive views, gentle paddling, and plenty of time to observe and learn, this is a journey designed for curious beginners and casual adventurers alike.

This trip is graded EASY, making it ideal for first‑time paddlers or anyone looking for a relaxed and rewarding outdoor experience. We paddle at an unhurried pace, allowing time to spot seabirds, seals, and other estuary wildlife while your guide shares stories about the area’s natural environment and historic connections to the Tay.
Running all year round, each tour is shaped around the conditions on the day to ensure a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience — no rushing, no pressure, just exploration.

What to Expect
Our half‑day trips last 2 to 2.5 hours on the water. Unless otherwise requested, we’ll use our double sea kayaks, which are fast, stable, and exceptionally comfortable — perfect for beginners and those wanting extra confidence on the water.

We provide all required equipment, plan your route in advance, and happily accommodate any special requests shared before the trip.
