Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE LANDSCAPE

Sea Cliff Bridge & Coastal Vistas

The itinerary passes the 140‑metre Sea Cliff Bridge for open-ocean views and stops at Stanwell Tops for coastal panoramas, the kind of exposed shoreline scenery that defines the South Coast.

THE WILDLIFE

Up Close at Symbio Wildlife Park

Symbio Wildlife Park is offered as a scheduled stop where visitors most commonly feed kangaroos and can pose for a photo with a koala; the park is a highlight for travellers seeking native-animal encounters.

THE ROUTE

Winery Tasting at Coolangatta Estate

The tour includes wine tasting at Coolangatta Estate, a noted Shoalhaven cellar door overlooking the ocean; tasting is a central focus of the day and usually one of the tour’s main highlights.
