WEA is fabulous right from the start

WEA is fabulous right from the start.
The Ningaloo trip was incredible. Everyday was as good as the last. Remote beauty at its best.
There were many favourite moments.
Singing in the bus was hilarious.
Those being the hours spent kayaking and snorkelling on the reef, the picnics, hiking on the ancient fossilised seabed range and the return back to our comfortable camp.
The evening dinners were also a highlight with most feeling exhausted and satisfied. The walk back to the tent was surprisingly interesting with the hundreds of shiny orbs from the sand based Wolf spiders. Their eyes shone like the night sky.
Many sublime moments were had by all.

A Truly Unforgettable Experience – Already Booked Again!

I had such an amazing time on my trip to Ningaloo with WEA that I came home and immediately booked to go back next year! The entire journey—from beginning to end—exceeded all my expectations.

The camping experience was comfortable and beautifully organised, the food was absolutely incredible (and plentiful!), and every single day was perfectly planned. Kayaking through crystal-clear waters was an absolute dream, and visiting the Oyster Stacks was nothing short of spectacular.
Kat brought the energy every single day—her enthusiasm and positivity made the trip even more special. She’s an absolute gem!

But the true highlight? Swimming with whale sharks. I’m still lost for words. It was one of the most awe-inspiring, humbling experiences of my life—something I’ll never forget.

Huge thanks to WEA for creating such a magical, adventure. I can’t wait to do it all over again!

I’ve just completed my 4th multi day adventure with Women Embrace Adventure and each time I say it was the best trip ever. What makes it special? You get to travel with a group of like minded women without the stress of having to organise anything. I turned up to the first adventure, not knowing anyone and over the years I’ve built a network of friends from the community that Kat and Sharon have created. I can’t recommend them enough.

The friendly knowledgeable nature of the guides, the weather (rain held off), the trek itself was a new adventure for me in my local area. It was a chance to meet new women, to chat & enjoy the best pizza I've ever had 😊

I loved the personal touches - the home cooked food that Kat and Sharon bring with them to cater for us. It gives a lovely feel to the adventure and they are always so welcoming and inclusive. Plus the adventures are great!

Tai Chi Experience

Beautiful sunshine to start the day overlooking Lake Macquarie for my introduction to Tai Chi. Really enjoyed the tuition provided. Lovely to catch up and enjoy morning tea together. I am keen to pursue more Tai Chi classes in the future.

The entire event was amazing. On a personal level I did struggle trying to mix in with other ladies. There appeared to be groups from previous groups together.

Hi Deb, thanks so much for your kind words. We loved the Dolphin Swim at Nelson Bay with you. Yep, they get excited to see each other! Most come alone and make lasting connections through shared experiences. It can seem like they've known each other for years, but a single day out sparks a new friendship. We hope to see you on another adventure soon! Sharon and Kat
