Welcome to the website for Dragon Boating in New South Wales. Dragon boating is the fastest growing water sport in Australia. Observe the water ways of Sydney over summer and you will see (or hear!) the sound of dragon boat teams pushing themselves to the limit in this fast paced, adrenalin pumping sport.

Dragon Boating is a unique sport in its ability to attract a broad demographic of members with varying cultural and occupational backgrounds as well as varying degrees of age and fitness. From youth to grand dragons (our members over 50) New South Wales is fortunate enough to attract people across all categories providing for fun and competitive racing environments.

Dragon Boating is the ultimate team sport with perfect timing imperative to a crews success. For this reason dragon boating has become a popular team building activity for corporate days and an enjoyable cross training or social day for people who enjoy a bit of a challenge.
