Sharon and Rob's Urban Mini-adventure
Who says you have to spend hours getting to your launch site, travel well away from the city lights and put hundreds of kilometres under you belt to have a good time? Not these trips. Join us in the first of our "Mini-adventures Series".
This is an overnight camping trip. We will leave from an eastern suburbs beachside location, cross Sydney's busiest working port, stop for morning tea/lunch at a small bay, cruise alongside an expansive southern Sydney beach before landing at our sheltered leafy overnight campsite where we can look back at the lights of suburbia and share stories, food and laughs.
We may see whales, deer, dolphin, flying fish, gannets, gulls, godwits, penguins, shearwater, seals and other creatures of the land, sea and air. Our return trip will retrace our journey and deliver us within a short driving distance from home!
You will need to be self sufficient with all your usual kayaking and camping gear as well as food,etc.
(If the weather isn't suitable I have a few plan B's)
Confirmation and further details will be emailed after you have registered.
