Your two qualified instructors will start the day with some simple safety and technique training before you gear up for your adventure.
Once it’s time to hit the water, you’ll meander along the idyllic coastline of Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park. Explore secluded bays only accessible from the water. If the weather’s warm enough, you’ll have the opportunity to take a refreshing dip.
Once you reach land, there’s a good chance you’ll spot some wildlife. Black-faced swamp wallabies, echidnas, lace monitors and glossy black cockatoos all call this area home. If you’re lucky, seals, dolphins, green sea turtles and little penguins might also make an appearance in the water.
All equipment is provided, including dry bags to keep your belongings from getting wet. A gourmet morning tea spread and a hot drink are also included.
