Total Eco Adventures

On Friday the 26th November the Canberra Raiders took a break from Canberra to come down the Batemans Bay for an alternative training session. The training involved an ironman type event with beach flags races, beach running, paddle races and sea kayaking relays. The morning was a lot of fun taking many of the players out of their comfort zone, through the waves and out into the ocean.

The Total Eco Adventures tours are planned for great kayaking experiences, extending from the Eurobodalla Shire to the Shoalhaven Region. Amongst the most beautiful scenery our easy flatwater paddles include the Tomaga River, Congo Creek, Tuross and Durras Lake systems, Lake Conjola and the breath taking Narrawallee Inlet at Ulladulla.

So what is an adventure discovery package? This is where we arrange everything from A to Z, taking the guesswork out of booking all activities and providing a range of accommodation options. These complete packages get the logistics sorted allowing more time for students and teachers to go with the flow and focus on their unique interaction with the coastal environment.

There is often a debate over which is the best style of kayak for flatwater and ocean experiences, open sit on top kayaks or enclosed sea kayaks.

We all want clean water and vibrant beautiful areas to enjoy when we undertake activities in the marine environment. Being environmentally responsible is the only way to ensure these experiences will always be there to take part in. Thankfully, most marine outdoor education activities are low impact and provide valuable opportunities to educate students on sustainable practices.

In terms of current global agendas, environmental awareness is becoming centre stage and this awareness has spread throughout our communities. It is becoming apparent to a large portion of our society that everything we do has an impact on the environment, whether that is negative or positive. This includes our domestic life, school and employment and recreational pursuits.
