Batemans Bay Travel Guides (Updated October 2026)

Great day out with family. Josh was a great guide and was very patient with all of us. Would highly recommend this tour.

We actually did 2 tours over 2 days. Josh was amazing, informative, easy going. We originally booked through a tour operator and there were a few hiccups, but Josh sorted everything successfully. We had 2 great experiences over 2 days. His 20 years in the industry shows through in his professionalism. I would not hesitate in booking a tour with Region X. My wife and I will be back next time we come this way.

Booked this as a surprise for my husband’s birthday. We arrived a little bit early and our guide Ben was already set up with everything organised to get us set up and on the water. He took care of making sure we we’re safe at all times and was happy to work with the group to take us on the best route including an amazing morning tea (I can’t believe all the drinks & snacks he’d carted along all the way) for our stop and some people took the option for a snorkel which was great. Would def recommend and thanks so much, from the booking through to the tour we were really happy with it all.

My family and I absolutely loved the entire tour. As complete beginners, Josh gave us a professional and friendly introduction to the basics of kayaking, making us feel comfortable and confident right from the start.Jane shared the story of her farm with great passion and happily answered all of our questions. The oyster tasting was absolutely delicious, and the four of us had a fantastic time as part of a group of eight people.Thank you so much for this wonderful experience – we highly recommend this tour!

Very friendly and helpful members of staff. Beautiful views along the coast with lovely recommended stops along the way. Easy to use bikes which we will definitely hire again when we next visit Narooma.

Was a great experience and the highlight of our trip. Our guide was fantastic and also took amazing photos as well as a great morning tea at a secluded beach.

Great experience, Gaz was a great tour guide and would recommend. Just be prepared to not see much through the glass bottom kayak on a cloudy day.

Fabulous tour, fun informative and a yummy oysters. Dave was great tour guide. Highly recommend

We had an amazing day.. the weather didn’t look promising but we handed out. We were super lucky.. we had Michael he was so great very encouraging personable.. he had great fun facts about the area. We went with two kids they absolutely had a ball.. loving and learning. Showing off their canoeing skills. The snack wasn’t much but it’s only two hours so depending on your tour time.. if you should eat before or after. We would definitely recommend and we’d do it again!

If you are visiting Narooma don’t miss this experience. Stop at The Hub on your way through town and let Sally organise an e-bike for you - all with a minimum of fuss, a friendly smile and expert service. Once you are pointed north on the shared bike path that runs to Dalmeny (allow a comfortable 2 hours to enjoy the viewpoints and side trails) you can begin to enjoy the luxury that an assisted bike offers. It is effortless! However, nothing can prepare you for the amazing scenery throughout the ride. I have ridden extensively overseas in Europe, Canada, Croatia and Asia and this is the equal of anything I have been lucky enough to experience thus far. To add a cherry on top make sure you don’t miss the coffee and food on offer at The Hub on your return. Best toasties in Australia - seriously (real ham, real cheese & real bread!). If it’s something sweeter you fancy the selection of cakes also looks amazing. A wonderful morning in this very beautiful town.

So. Much. Fun. I had an absolute ball - the tour was fab, guides were amazing, the whole group gelled so well!! Highly recommend. & Sam's Pizza of course - phenomenal!

Amy and Dave guided us 7 ladies through the beautiful Murramarang National Park. On all levels they were professional welcoming and knowledgeable. Food excellent Accommodation excellent The spotted gums were awesome and beautiful to see our native animals. The water was pristine. Thank you Amy and Dave for sharing this experience with us. You are both an asset to Region X.

Unbelievable. The morning we headed off it poured with rain but our superstar guide Dave simply changed the plan on the spot and had such a positive outlook the whole time meaning we didn’t miss a moment and laughed and splashed our way up the river. The night at Rods farm was a highlight then the sun came out the second day so we enjoyed the picturesque paddle with plentiful food, snacks and secret beach exploring. Josh and Dave were fabulous to accomodate our kids (8&9yo) who had a blast! Highly recommend these guys to anyone looking for a magic adventure - thank you so much!

Eva and Mish were our trusty guides. So knowledgeable about birds, geology and how to take care of everything. I felt pampered. Beautiful food presentation and a new table cloth every day. The walk is graded 4 but I would grade it 2/3. It is very doable and I felt great when I finished. A sensitive balance of commentary and quiet time to enjoy Mother Nature. The forests, bird life and ocean views were fabulous. Accommodation was beautiful in an ocean villa. The pool at Murramurrang Resort added to my pampering, At first I thought this 3 day trip was a bit pricey. It was worth every cent because all my needs were taken care of.

If you're a local or a visitor to the beautiful south coast, you need to visit Region X, from a coffee at the Mossy Point Cafe or one of the many tours both locally and internationally, Region X have the most amazing, friendly staff that will make whatever activity you choose to be one to remember. Shout out to Josh Waterson and his team who have built Region X from the ground up to a thriving business, I'll keep coming back & bringing everyone I know, can't recommend Region x highly enough......what are you waiting for check them out online, you won't be disappointed.

Amazing experience, from booking to finishing the team have been amazing! We set off bright and early from a local beach, and cruised into open water on our way to toll gate islands. The whales were in the distance the whole time, until around half way. At this point a mother whale and calf came right up to the kayaks! Truly once in a life time experience.The tour was safe, easy going and fun for all in the group. The afternoon tea was such a nice touch.Thanks again
