FAMILY TOUR
The best way to see 1770 is from the water
A kayak tour for the whole family - 9:30am/from $40/2hrs
Join 1770 Liquid Adventures on a fun morning paddling and exploring Round Hill Creek in 1770. The beauty of this area is best seen from the water.
-
Starting point is at the kayak beach just past the Marina. You will meet your tour guide and after gearing everyone up with life-jackets, a brief introduction on safety and paddling techniques follows and then we are off to have some fun!
-
The two hour guided tour is a great way to see 1770 from the water and visit a few places you can only get to on a kayak.
-
All kids are given a bird and marine life identification slate to use on the tour.
-
We might spot some of our local estuarine dolphins, crabs, stingrays and a variety of birds which the kids (and adults!) can identify with their ID-slates.
-
Fish feeding at the Marina from our kayaks (if possible).
-
We pull up at a secluded beach or sandbar for morning tea (home made biscuits, tea/coffee and juice for kids).
-
The exact route of the tour is determined by the conditions (wind & tide). We always endeavour to take the best route possible.
This tour is suited for families with children aged 4 to 12. If you have kids in that age group and also older ones in your family, they are, of course, all welcome.
