1 Feb, Sat	Kayaking Port Davey/Bathurst Harbour
		Branch
jcrocker
Expressions of interest are sought for a kayaking trip of about a week's duration in Port Davey/Bathurst Harbour in SW Tasmania for February or March 2020. The plan would be to fly from Hobart to Melaleuca, and a folding kayak, suitable for air transport, would be an advantage. It is possible to take a conventional kayak into Port Davey on a charter boat, but the trip around the southern capes of Tasmania is recommended only for those with good sea legs. A number of shops in Australia sell folding kayaks, and hire arrangements may be possible. Once there, the plan would be to explore as much of the area as the weather conditions permit. February and March are the least windy months, but very strong winds may occur at any time. However, the area has many sheltered inlets and it should usually be possible to find some protected water to paddle. View

1 Feb, Sat 10:08AM			Maroubra – Coogee

This is a new walk that takes in aspects of the Tahmoor Gorge and Mermaids Pool Lookouts. It is a relatively flat walk only 1 shortish climb.
