Pittwater Eco Adventures

Adventure and Outdoors Tours

Pittwater Eco Adventures is a ‘profit for purpose’ eco tourism company on the Northern Beaches. Their core philosophy is to ‘Preserve Wild Places’ which means that our tours, workshops, retreats and multi-day experiences are focused around this message. They believe that living in harmony with nature is critically important. Leaving a positive impact on the environment is a big part of the work we do, and our hope is to empower others to do the same.

They live and work on Garigal Country, about 60 minutes north of Sydney. Their Pittwater Tours run twice a month: once on a Saturday, starting and finishing in Morning Bay (accessible by ferry from Church Point); and once on a Sunday, starting and finishing at McCarrs Creek Reserve.

Pittwater Eco Adventures offer school and corporate give-back experiences that range from half-day and full-day workshops to a six day long Duke of Edinburgh experience. All of their services can be custom built to suit your needs. Workshops and longer stays include a range of activities: kayak, SUP, snorkel, yoga and mindfulness, bushwalking; as well as opportunities to learn about the land and help preserve it through clean-up, bush regeneration, native tree planting and indigenous education.

Pittwater Eco Adventures also hosts artist retreats and Connect to Country retreats. Both retreats run twice annually, in the shoulder seasons, at Pittwater YHA.

From $100 to $165

Join Pittwater Eco Adventures for a blissful day on Pittwater starting and finishing at Halls Wharf, Morning Bay. Once you’ve arrived by ferry from Church Point, you’ll walk around to Morning Bay where the Kayaks and SUPs are kept, and gear up for the adventure! They’ll give you some instructions about staying safe on the water, and how to use correct paddling technique to save you getting tired too quickly. You’ll then hit the water where you can meander along the idyllic coastline of the Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, exploring the nearby bays. If you’re lucky, you might see some local wildlife: on land there are black-faced swamp wallabies, echidnas, lace monitors, and a gum forest full of birds – namely the glossy black cockatoos who are very special to see. On the water you can see everything from seals, dolphins, green sea turtles, little penguins and ‘smacks’ of jellyfish!

Pittwater Eco Adventures priority is to give paddlers an enjoyable experience on the water. They choose the exact route most often on the morning of the tour. They are life-long locals and know the beaches, bays and bushtracks intimately.
