Tour Itinerary
7am – Canberra hotel pickup commences
Meet your guide in the hotel lobby before scenic transfer to the coast.
Enjoy stories of early pastoral settlements as you pass historic townships such
as Bungendore and Braidwood. Leave the bustling Capital behind as we enter temperate
forests on our way down the mountain to the coast. Look for Tall Man Ferns,
Lyrebirds and ocean glimpses as we pass through the Great Dividing Range.
930am – Travel to the
quintessentially Australian Murramarang National Park to meet the famous
friendly kangaroos that laze and graze along the beaches. Search for colourful bird
life, dolphins playing offshore, and spend some time unwinding in this secluded
paradise.
1130am – Back in the vehicle for a short
drive to the seaside town of Batemans Bay. Enjoy some free time shopping and scouting
out lunch options along the waterfront. Your guide will be close by to help you
with any lunch ideas, like where to find the best coffee or fish and chips!
130pm – After a quick stop to change into suitable
kayaking clothes, you will be met by our experienced kayak guide who will
provide you with all the gear and tuition you need to paddle the calm and
pristine waters of the Clyde River. After just a short journey in your
comfortable sea kayak, arrive at the famous Wray Street Oyster Shed where you
will meet a 4th generation Oyster farmer. Sample the freshest oysters you can
get – straight from the river! – and learn about the history and science behind
the oyster farming industry. We then paddle on to visit working oyster farms; scouting
for stingrays, soaring birds of prey and other wildlife along the tidal sand
flats, before returning to shore.
3.00pm – Back on solid ground, we’ll say farewell to your kayak guide
and board the vehicle back to Canberra, sharing stories and laughs along the
way.
(You may choose to book accommodation in Batemans Bay to extend your
stay! We are happy to recommend accommodation options and transfer you to your coastal hotel or Airbnb at the end of your tour.)
530pm – Arrive back at your Canberra
