Port Stephens, Broughton Island, the only island on the NSW coast where camping is not only permitted but it is encouraged by NSW National Parks.
Walking Rivers has tailored a two-day kayak and camping experience on the island designed to give anyone an unforgettable getaway experience.
The 148-acre island is only an hour kayak paddle across a relatively protected strip of water that anyone with moderate fitness can paddle.
Once on the island, you will experience seclusion and a unique view of the Australian mainland that not many people ever witness.
Depending on the season you choose to go in you can often paddle up close to Humpback Whales in winter, Dolphins in summer and sometimes turtles.
In spring the island is covered in wildflowers, and the birdlife is prolific through the summer months.
