    AGM Weekend at Windang

    October 11 to 12, 2025

    This year, the Club AGM is at Windang, a small beach side community about 1.5 hours south of Sydney with abundant paddling opportunities. To the south is Bass Point, picturesque Bushranger Bay, and an abundance of sea caves including the well known Kiama blowhole; while to the north is Red Point and the Five Islands. Lake Illawarra provides more protected paddling.

    We will be based at Windang Beach Tourist Resort which is right on Lake Illawarra and an easy paddle out to sea via Tom Thumb Entrance. Book early to reserve your camping site or cabin as this is the final weekend of the October school holidays.

    The AGM will be held at 4:00 pm in the Windang Senior Citizens Centre, a short walk from Windang Beach Tourist Resort. After the meeting, we can socialise over dinner at Club Windang which is also within easy walking distance.

    See you there.

    A special trip aiming for us to venture deep into the mangroves at a king (1.9m) tide. Approximately 16kms all up. This is a unique adventure that requires kayak manoeuvring skills as we paddle single file finding our way through the trees into a peaceful mangrove sanctuary.

    We will aim to launch either from La Perouse, or Dolls Point depending on the winds forecast. After our crossing to Kurnell we'll stop for a short break at a sandy beach for BYO coffee and food, then head over to the mangroves and find our way (literally) through the mangroves. 
    Bring your thermos and lunch This trip is suitable for any grades from Grades 1 up and will be led by Cathy Miller (Enclosed Waters Guide) and Simon Swifte (training for EWG).
