Halvdags havkajaktur fra Batemans Bay med morgente

Was a great experience and the highlight of our trip. Our guide was fantastic and also took amazing photos as well as a great morning tea at a secluded beach.

Most wonderful adventure. My teenage twin daughters and I went on this tour on our way back from Tura beach to Sydney and it turned out a high light of our road trip. Mike our tour guide was very knowledgeable thoughtful and kind. He prepared everything to accompany us, even brought wet suits for our snorkelling. We were so lucky with nice weather and calm ocean, we saw 3 whales migrating from south to north, jumping in and out of the water for about 20 minutes. We spent a great time watching a colony of seals 🦭 up close and they put on a great playful show around us. Snorkelling was fun . Morning tea was plentiful and lovely. Climbing up the head was thrilling and adventurous. It’s a 10 out of 10 experience. Thank you Mike and the team at Region X. We will do more tour with you soon.

It was a great day . We were treated so well. So relaxed and friendly. Great instruction and information about the beautiful Clyde River . Morning tea was amazing with delicious fresh oysters

Garan was such a great Guide, didn’t just know a lot about kayaking but the history and geography of the area. The tea in a little Bay Area was a highlight, especially since we did not know that tea included food!

I joined the Half-Day Sea Kayak Tour from Batemans Bay, and it was an absolute pleasure—fun, smooth, and very well organised. David was friendly, calm, and highly experienced throughout the entire trip. When my kayak tipped over due to the tides, he handled the situation perfectly. There was no panic at all—my son and I got back into the kayak smoothly and continued our journey without any difficulty. He even came back to retrieve my hat after it fell into the water, which I really appreciated. David’s professionalism, guidance, and support were outstanding from start to finish. Thank you so much for a fantastic experience today, David! Kind regards, Randy

Would really like to thank our guide Dave. He was really relaxed, informative and very easy to get along with. Highlight of the morning was hanging out with 6 or so seals frolicking in close to the rocks. Would recommend to experienced or novice adventures.

I’ve done a few trips with Region X now (Half day sea kayak, Glass bottom Cullendulla, Oyster tasting) Enjoy getting out in the water with the experienced guides. Always a great experience!

This is not my first time sea kayaking, but absolutely my worst one. My partner and I booked the tour one day earlier, and then received a message telling us to “urgently” call the agency. We did, but no calls were answered nor returned, leaving us anxious for a couple of hours. When we finally received a brief email later that evening, which just gives us a pin of the meeting point for the next morning, what the urgent need was for us to call was not explained, nor our question on what to bring was replied. The next morning on the beach, one of the two tour guides pointed us to a kayak that has to carry the main component of the “morning tea picnic” for a whole group of less than twenty customers. We would be understanding if these loads had been equally shared by all, but our load was approximately three times more than anyone else, while (a) my partner had disclosed a medical condition via the agency’s online survey, (b) we were obviously the smallest in body size and underweight, and (c) interestingly, we were the only non-whites at the spot. Due to the weight, we had trouble pushing the kayak forward to the water from the very beginning, but the teaching on how to sit on and paddle the kayaks just started far from and without us. Then when we set out to row on water, we were unable to catch up with the group again and again because the loads quickly exhausted us. Neither of the two guides stay with us even though we said we were tired. For a moment, we could not even see any other kayak in the middle of the sea. My partner felt nausea, vomit a couple of times, and continuously quivered due to body heat loss, but all we could do was to just keep pedaling hard forward to find the group. We didn’t even bring our phones under the strong advice of the guides, and of course didn’t expect this situation. We missed almost all the explanations of points of interest, and were not included in many tour pictures. We paid for a guided tour where we were not sufficiently instructed nor accompanied. If we didn’t choose this tour, and just kayaked by ourselves, we wouldn’t even need to carry the load (which we could not enjoy at the picnic later, ironically, due to the sickness), nor would we need to catch up with anyone at the expenses of our own safety, health and comfort. When we finally managed to reach the group that had stayed at a point to watch wildlife, I asked to be towed to a near beach. The guides didn’t have medication for seasickness nor emergency blanket. Fortunately, my partner’s condition just didn’t worsen, and after a rest at the beach, we paddled back to the starting point by ourselves, and quickly drove to elsewhere to get a public toilet and pharmacy. The whole experience felt like bullying, with moments of isolation, ignorance and physical risk one after another.

Stepped out of my comfort zone today and loved it. Kayaking with an adventurous group, beautiful weather, plus snorkeling and swimming to top it off. Michael was a fantastic instructor!

Wonderful experience for my birthday, really enjoyable. We had Amy as our tour guide and I would highly recommended her each and every time Thank you Region x for a great time We will be back
