DESCRIPTION:
This paddle will commence from the Brighton and Seacliff Yacht Club, adjacent the car park. Come along and be amazed at the Hallett Cove Conservation Park rock formations. This area was the base of a glacial lake that melted 270 million years ago, leaving boulders, sedimentary deposits and stunning geological folding. The area is recognised as the best record of Permian glaciation in Australia and has international significance.
The clifftop boardwalk hanging bridges have been completed and look stunning from the water.
We may also encounter the occasional pod of dolphins feeding along the coast, we have recently seen several pods and plenty of feeding frenzy on display.
We often head to the Brighton and Seacliff Sailing Club for a meal or drink after paddling. Wednesday during winter and early spring is curry night and meals are served after 5pm!
Note that ratios/quotas will apply depending on the number of Instructors or Leaders on a trip. We may take pictures of the trip and mention your name on our website. If you have any concerns about this, let the trip leader know.
