Brief Summary:
Going to the ocean hoping to see some whales. Only for participants who completed the ocean training paddle and have their own kayaks.
Additional Information
From mid-May, humpback whales begin passing Sydney on their northern migration from Antarctic waters. The peak months to sight them are towards the end of June and the beginning of July. Be ready to see lots of breaching and males showing off their dominance. In October and November, you will see lots of mothers and calves swimming down the coast. They usually swim a little slower and stick to the shoreline on their migration back south.
You will need to have completed and passed the sea kayaking paddle training and have your own paddling gear.
It is a day paddle. We will decide either Saturday or Sunday based on the weather closer to the date.
