Watsons Bay beachfront on Australia Day is now recognised as a day where the surrounding communities, dog owners and elite athletes, come together to celebrate our National Day and show appreciation and admiration to the sport of Stand Up Paddling.
But most of all to have fun!
This Australia Day annual event will see paddlers and pooches hit the beach in Watsons Bay for a day of fun races and activities. The Every Man and His Dog stand-up paddle race event is open to all including those without a four-legged friend and those without a paddle board as it can be hired on the day. Or you could simply come and watch...
Categories will include Sprint, Long Distance, Dash for Cash, Kids SUP (Under 13s and Under 18s) and Man and Dog races – paddle with your pooch.
