Two main reasons are – they are so much easier to transport and store but more importantly, they are cheap too compared to a traditional kayak or even a boat! They may not be quite a status symbol, but they can get you on the water easily. It can easily become a hobby to paddle around and enjoy.

Choosing the right Inflatable Kayak
Disadvantages of inflatable kayaks over traditional ones are that they are slower, harder to go straight, have the risk of being punctured. However, almost all of these risks can be addressed by the more expensive or better inflatable kayaks you are willing to consider. Try to avoid fabric-covered (zipped) kayaks as they are very hard to clean and dry after use. We recommend either the cheapest ones that are single-layer vinyl (if you are a beginner on a budget) or the expensive ones that are Thick PVC-type inflatable kayaks. Below are some of the BEST inflatable kayaks you can buy online in Australia at some great prices and awesome reviews.
