We were amazed at our amazing coastline and wildlife, especially the seal colony and the bottom view of the Kiama Blow Hole. Mark and Ellisha were friendly and fantastic guides, so much knowledge about the local history and wildlife. Took my Mum for her Birthday and it was worth every cent. Will definitely be doing it again and will do the Whale Watching Cruise when they are in season too. Great for locals and tourists!

Went on their Ecocruise this afternoon. Great two hour cruise with loads of info on the way. We saw lots of Seals. We sat at the front which the captain warned us would be bumpy- it was but our 6 and 4 year old girls loved it. Will definitely be back for Whale season. On the new Marina too so a great day out, with nice cafes and walks etc.
