Meeting by the lakes edge outside the historic Conjola Post Office & Shop, the route for this guided eco-walk includes lakeside, bush and beach. You'll hear stories of natural environment, flora and fauna (and some surprising local history!) as we wander along the lake edge with binoculars handy for a closer look at the abundant birdlife. Kangaroo sightings are guaranteed on this walk, and lakeside is where we're most likely to see them. Next, via a boardwalk through the bush, you'll visit 3 fabulously placed look-outs with stunning vistas of lake and coast, before emerging on beautiful Conjola beach. Walks along the sea shore vary seasonally. You might see whales, dolphins, endangered beach-nesting birds (and surfers catching a break off Green Island). Leaving the beach via a walk over sand dunes - looking out for wildlife tracks & seasonal plants - we follow the lake edge back to finish near Conjola Entrance boat ramp, with views over to Conjola National Park. Bushfire Update Feb 2020 Conjola District was badly affected by recent bushfires, and we'll share some stories of this challenging time with you on the tour. Luckily the tour route wasn't burnt so no changes there, but a heads up the national park views are no longer lush and green. Your visit will have a positive impact on our bushfire affected community - thank you. Other things to note COVID 19 update - June 20th 2020. This experience is fully compliant with NSW govt regulations, including social distancing. Reduced numbers - 8 visitors per tour. If you prefer though, this experience can also be booked private tour.

Join me for an intimate sea kayaking tour in the incredible Jervis Bay Marine Park! An outdoor experience like no other, you'll have the opportunity to paddle to some of Australia's most beautiful beaches with the whitest sand in the world! There is always a chance of encounters with local wildlife like seals, dolphins, sea birds and whales at the right time of year. We meet in the morning at 7:45am to get fitted into the appropriate sea kayak and briefing on safety procedures, equipment and the area. Once on the water we will practice some paddle strokes before heading off into the stunning Jervis Bay and Booderee National Parks for a relaxing 1.5 hours. Stopping for a break on one of the most pristine beaches in the world we will provide plunger coffee, tea, cake from the local Husky bakery and fruit for morning tea. Take this opportunity to have a swim or snorkel while your guide prepares the feast. Once adequately rested we will take to the water again for another 1.5 hours to try and spot some local wildlife before returning to our start point. Guests will leave with new skills and a great appreciation for the beauty of the area and provided photos for lasting memories of an unforgettable experience! Other things to note Please wear outdoor activity appropriate clothing and shoes that you don't mind getting wet. You will get wet feet and wet arms.

During your 1.5hr walk around the farm, you will learn about award winning free range heritage breed pigs and get to feed them. You will see our award winning lamb, and the gorgeous hairy Highland cows. Redleaf farm also has chickens, ducks, geese and peafowl, alpacas, goats and a miniature donkey who loves to have a cuddle. You will learn about ethically raising animals and the process of meat production with provenance. We will show you around our farm and animals, ending with our special waterfall and swimming hole, and kids will enjoy the log 'climbing fort' and tyre swing by the creek. We encourage private groups to make a visit to Redleaf a special and memorable experience. Other things to note It can be cold in the highlands and weather can change fast. Please be prepared with sensible shoes (mud boots are always a good idea) and a jacket. There can be many hazzards on a farm, so please follow directions and stay alert.

Meeting by the boat ramp at Fishermans Paradise, the route for this guided walk includes riverside, bush, village tracks and streets. You'll hear stories of natural environment, flora and fauna (and some surprising local history!) as we wander along the rivers edge with binoculars handy for a closer look at the abundant birdlife. It's likely we'll also see kangaroos and eastern water dragons (and fish jumping in the river). Then, via a track through the bush and over a boardwalk, we visit a favourite fishing spot with fabulous views over the river, ideal for photos reflecting the bush in the afternoon light. Taking a different track from the rivers edge, we'll then wander through the village. Bird life is abundant everywhere in Fishermans Paradise so keep your camera and binoculars handy. Coming back to the rivers edge, we follow a track along the riverside with stunning river vistas as we head back to the boat ramp. Bushfire update 2020: Some of the tour route was badly burned in recent fires. These days the eco-walk includes stories of that challenging time, and recovery/regeneration. Other things to note Leisurely walk, sensible footwear recommended. Families welcome. Children under 2 are free of charge. This walk can also be booked as a private experience (minimum 2 people). Dogs on a leach are welcome on private experiences only.

Honey is a remarkable food and ingredient. The taste, viscosity, colour and aromas are linked directly to the floral sources available to the bees. In this gourmet food tour you will join a local food and wine enthusiast, beekeeper and bon vivant on a honey tasting, overview of the lifecycle of a colony and then suit up and visit a beehive! The honey tasting provides a unique insight into the different tastes and textures created by Hamish’s bees and a diverse range of floral sources. Hamish harvests his honey using the Flow Hive system which allows you to take small amounts of honey at a time without disturbing the bees. We get to taste honeys collected weeks and sometimes days apart and compare them. All of this alongside leaf tea or plunger coffee, freshly baked scones and award winning jam. By building our knowledge of these important pollinators we are helping build a sustainable future for the bees and for all of us. You will need fully enclosed shoes to be able to do this. During winter (April - September) we don't open the hives but get up close to observe the bees coming and going and view them through specially designed glass hive windows. Although the group size is limited it is possible to host a larger group; I simply bring along another beekeeper and they will open another hive. Likewise you can request a date. @bowralbeekeeping
