About MAKAI
MAKAI Paddlers was founded in 2009 by local paddling enthusiasts, Damian ‘Damo’ Staunton and Paul ‘Watto’ Watkins. Damo and Watto saw an opportunity in the local community for like-minded paddlers to meet for training sessions, friendly competitions and social events. The club has grown to over 80 members, with competitive, junior and social members.
The MAKAI Cup is our flagship event, held every year on the second weekend in February and brings together paddlers from all over the country looking to race in the best conditions the South Coast has to offer.
