The intent for this kayak trip was to explore the far-south coast of New South Wales, from Bermagui to Pambula over 5 enjoyable days and with the guidance of a local kayaker who knows the place pretty well.
The Initial trip planning took place over a few schooners within the sandstone walls of the Lord Nelson. A great place to begin any adventure.
Planning the adventure is always a great part of the enjoyment of any expedition.
Sadly, however, it was not long after this little gathering that we received the tragic news that the wife of a dear friend of ours had suddenly died while travelling in France. Our plans for the far south coast were shelved so that we could attend the memorial service scheduled for the same weekend as our trip.
Keenly reminded once again of the fragility and impermanence of life we decided to make the most of the time still available to us, so the day following the service we took off with our kayaks to explore another beautiful place along the NSW south coast, but within closer striking distance - the Beecroft Peninsula of Jervis Bay.
This kayak trip is dedicated to the memory of Lisa Wilson - as we wandered through the Illawarra-Shoalhaven landscapes that framed her childhood.
