Enliven Outdoor Adventures Coorong Kayaking

Are you wanting to get out of hibernation? To connect with like-minded women? To get out of the city and into nature in an area you can only access by boat? Join our two-day, one-night kayaking experience in the incredible Coorong National Park! We will paddle by kayak to a stunning campsite and spend the evening under the stars cooking, walking, journalling, chatting and laughing, before paddling our way back the next day, spotting native birds (and hopefully seals and dolphins) as we go! Connect with other women, gain a sense of achievement, and get back to nature on this incredible 2 day adventure on the sand dunes, waterways and beaches of Ngarrindjeri Country! Witness the beauty of the world renowned bird sanctuary, where the Mighty Murray River meets the sea.
