THINGS TO DO 

You can laze about and enjoy the calm, relaxing environment, or you could do a range of land and water activities.  We have provided you with a list of activities available in the area.  

If you are looking to be more adventurous, catch a Ferry to Nelson Bay and partake of the huge amount of activities and shopping on offer.  The ferry no longer stops at Hawks Nest, so you have to go into Tea Gardens to catch it.

Kayaking

There are two main companies that offer kayak tours. 

 

Ezy Kayaks set up directly opposite the house, so its the easier option.
