About Us
Two mates, former corporate professionals, reflecting on their shared love for water sports, decided to turn their passion into a lifestyle. This conversation led them to
dive into the world of paddling, seamlessly blending work with leisure. What started as a casual discussion evolved into PaddleZone - a paddling business that has grown over more than two decades.
Founded in 2001 as C-Kayak Australia, now trading as PaddleZone we’re proudly owned by Adam and Craig. As a 100% Australian, family-owned business, our focus is you, the customer and your paddling adventures. Being avid paddlers ourselves, we understand the joy of spending time on the water, whether for recreation, fitness, or competition. We believe in the physical, mental and social benefits of paddling and thrive on encouraging people to get out on the water, whether alone, with a partner, in a group, or in a race.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced paddler looking to enhance your skills, we offer expert advice both on and off the water to ensure your paddling experiences are always rewarding. It doesn’t matter what type of craft you use or how often you paddle; what matters is that you’re out there enjoying Australia’s incredible waterways.
Our dedicated team is made up of enthusiastic paddlers who bring a diligent customer focus to every interaction. When you visit us, you’ll notice the difference—our staff are eager to discuss all things paddling, from kayak
specifications to safety gear, and to help you find the best craft for you and accessory options for your paddling needs.
Over the past 20 years, the paddling market has seen remarkable advancements in technology and
manufacturing . While some of our brands have been established since before we began, others have gained strong reputations globally. We import many brands, some exclusively, from manufacturers, offering a diverse range of paddling products, including sea, touring, recreational, social, ski, competition, outrigger canoe, fishing, and white-water equipment. For enthusiasts, families, clubs, groups, education and individual paddlers, our range will satisfy all your paddling needs.
With stores in Sydney and on the Gold Coast, we offer some of the world’s best brands at competitive prices. At PaddleZone we pride ourselves on providing high levels of expertise and customer service, which has fuelled our success for over two decades. We ship nationwide and manage wholesale and export orders as well.
