On the water since 2016

Who we are.

One boat, one crew.

Dragon boating runs on one rule: the crew moves together, or not at all. New paddlers are welcome to join us on the Yarra in Docklands.

We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land on which we train, the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation, and pay our respects to Elders past and present.

Yarra River Dragons is a proud LGBTQ+ inclusive club — everyone is welcome on our boats.
