The journey begins with a drive along Highcliff Road and past Hoopers Inlet, where rolling hills, rugged coastline, and peaceful bays create a stunning natural backdrop.
Along the way, guests can stop to take photographs and observe native wildlife, including wading birds in their natural habitat. A knowledgeable guide provides insight into the landscape, local ecology, and the behavior of the Little Blue Penguins, adding depth to the experience.
