Brisbane Attractions; Friday Night Paddle

Want to make your stay in Brisbane truly worth remembering? Try out the Friday Night Paddle and Prawns experience. There is indeed no better way to take a break from mundane day to day living or unwind after a busy day than to glide up and around Brisbane’s majestic river and feast on prawns and a glass of ice-cold Aussie beer after the kayak adventure.

Thanks for Riverlife, visitors and residents alike can enjoy a different perspective of Brisbane and delight at the stunning night views of the city. The Paddle and Prawns experience starts off with a leisurely kayak up in the river through a guide light that enables one to view the colourful views of the city skyline. At the end of an hour and a half of kayak, participants are rewarded with sumptuous platters of fresh ocean king prawns drank served with an assortment of drinks to choose from.

Meat lovers can enjoy the same experience with a Paddle and BBQ adventure available separately during Saturdays. Booking for Paddle and Prawn Fridays are necessary, and rates are as follows:
$49 per person for Paddle only (available from 7pm until 8:30)
$79 per person for Paddle and Prawns (available from 7pm until 10pm)

Young adults aged at least 13 years old and adults even without prior kayak experience can enjoy this thrilling Aussie adventure. The tours are guided by experienced and qualified instructors who can cater to your every need. Prior to the kayak tour, you will be asked to listen to a series of talks with full instructions, safety briefings and instructions on how to use the equipment. Briefings and use of equipment are already included in the admission fee.

Private group session bookings of at least 8 people are welcome (done any night of the week except Friday).

Participants who wish to join the Paddle and Prawn experience must expect their clothes to get wet (thus, bringing spare change of clothes is highly recommended). Kayaking will be done barefoot and complimentary sunscreen, shower and lockers are available.

While in Brisbane, stay at Bridgewater Terraces at Kangaroo Point and enjoy a truly relaxing vacation that you and your friends will surely remember. Bridgewater is within stone’s throw away from Brisbane’s CBD and is a convenient location to enjoy all the attractions this side of Australia has to offer.

Stopped there for 3 weeks. Good location, nice internal facilities. Rooms were not cleaned well enough. Dust here and there, plus found an old razor in the bathroom. however I would put 3.5 stars for overall experience which wasn't bad. My major concern is safety and security of the apartments. My car was broken into at night on secure underground parking. Car's door was broken and my personal belongings were stolen. Management told me they are not responsible for the damage and loss because of the signs they put on parking walls. This accident put my rating down to 1 star.If you have a car I would recommend to park it underground despite the secure gates installed.

Bridgewater terraces is the perfect place to stay for business or leisure. It is conveniently located within reach of Southbank, the CBD, local hospitals and convention centres ect. I stayed at the apartment for over 2 months and thoroughly enjoyed my time. I found the complex to be perfectly manicured and maintained, quiet and loved the cafe next doors. The river view is also very relaxing. The location is perfect for children and my kids loved walking through the gardens, splashing in the pool and walking to the nearby park and playground. Ray and Dennis in management were very helpful, attentive, compassionate and a pleasure to deal with.

Booked to stay at Bridgewater Terraces and looked forward to our visit. The views of the river are magnificent and this was the main, and as it turned out, the ONLY attraction.Initially the room looked OK until we discovered that it appeared NOT to have been cleaned! The old cooker was filthy and had to be scrubbed before we could use it. None of the cutlery or dishes were from same sets. The windows may have been wiped, but with a greasy rag. Having completed our own clean we sat down on a badly worn, sagging sofa which had stains and grease marks all over it. If that wasn't bad enough, the shower screen came off its rusty rails and there were many loose surrounding tiles. When the tumbler drier gave up, so did we and we checked out!Such a pity, Well manicured gardens and a fantastic location but the apartment interior was old and tattered and from our experience, very little effective management. Just to put the boot in, wifi is NOT free and is horrendously expensive. Stay here at your peril!!

Stayed here with a few guests and booked 3 rooms during February. Reception were only too kind and gave us really good tips on the Brisbane area. Rooms were spacious and quite modern. Everyone in our party enjoyed the stay and would definitely come back.

Stars rounded up because management were friendly. We got a neat well furnished apartment looking over the river. Appliances are modern but the washer and dryer are cheap. The dryer is faulty but useable if you jury-rig it. The bathroom floor drain doesnt have a trap so youre best off covering it to prevent air from venting out. Everything else was nice, the pool is a plus and the location is good.
