| Snorkel Adventure |
No age limit* |
Duration: 2 hours |
Snorkelling provides us with a window to the sea. It enables us to see first hand the wonders, biodiversity and mysteries of life beneath the waves. Gain greater confidence in the water, and enjoy learning a new skill.
Participants don’t need to have had any snorkelling or ocean swimming experience. Commence in the safety of a rock pool, then graduate to a safe harbour or sheltered bay. Marvel at the weird and wonderful animals beneath the surface.
* Children 6 and under must be accompanied by an adult. Unfortunately very small children who require XXS wetsuits can not be accommodated.
| Canoe Escapade |
No age limit* |
Duration: 2 hours |
Journey along two local tidal rivers – Crooked River, Gerroa and Minnamurra River, Kiama; in canadian canoes. Have fun exploring the estuaries and mangrove swamps that are vital to the health of our beaches.
The Land’s Edge Instructors teach the basic strokes and safety aspects of canoeing which enables you to paddle confidently along these fascinating waterways.
Canoeing is a great mode of transport and enables us to explore areas that we wouldn’t be able to visit by foot. Enjoy the tranquillity and observe wading birds, fish and other animals which make their home along the river.
* Children 6 and under must be accompanied by an adult. Unfortunately very small children who require XXS buoyancy vests can not be accommodated.
| Rock Platform Ramble |
No age limit* |
Duration: 2 hours |
Wander along the rock platforms at low tide to see some of the fascinating creatures who live in this harsh environment. These areas are home to a myriad of plant and animal life. Tickle a sea anemone or watch a killer snail in action.
The Land’s Edge staff conducts safe, fun and informative rambles along the platforms, helping participants to observe, identity and understand some of these intriguing species, their living conditions and adaptations.
* Some rambles involve scrambling over rocks.
| Kids Beach Art and Games |
Ages: 4 - 8 yrs |
Duration: 2 hours |
These activities focus on kids having a fun, safe and educational beach experience. The Land’s Edge staff have an endless repertoire of games which focus on the marine environment.
Sand sculptures, stories, drawing, games, fun and much more keep the children busy throughout the session. But all the while, without knowing it, they will learn about the flora and fauna living on the beach, beneath the waves and on the rocky platforms.
| Surf Pipis |
Ages: 6 - 10 yrs |
Duration: 2 hours |
Surf Pipis is a low key introduction to surf awareness and wave riding. Activities on the beach and in the waves cover safety issues concerned with spending time by the coast. Surf Pipis is a great water confidence activity for those kids who are just a little too apprehensive or young for a Surf Lesson but love the water, waves and beach.
The session is safely conducted by the Land’s Edge Surf School where wetsuits, body boards and small soft Malibu boards are used to provide the children with a positive and memorable beach experience.
