All the photos have dropped from Bec's big night winning SILVER at the NSW Tourism Association Top Tour Guide Awards!
What an evening it was at Taronga Zoo Sydney with Tour Guides Australia & an amazing panel of speakers.
The room was full of tour guides... new friends were made, stories were told & plans of future adventures were made.
This is why we love what we do.

π When we're not on the water, we're busy learning, planning and finding new ways to make our experiences even better.
We're incredibly proud to have recently earned 5 Accessibility Badges through the Australian Tourism Industry Council! π
Achieving these badges has involved months of work, including:
βΏ Developing a comprehensive Accessibility Guide
π Creating a dedicated Accessibility webpage
π Designing a Visual Guide and Picture Menu
π£οΈ Producing a Communication Picture Board
π Participating in accessibility workshops and webinars
π€ Networking with guests, accessibility advocates and other tourism businesses
π Obtaining a MLAK to help guests access accessible facilities when required
Accessibility isn't a one-off project - it's an ongoing commitment. We believe everyone should have the opportunity to enjoy the incredible experience of stand up paddle boarding, and we'll continue to listen, learn and innovate to make our experiences as welcoming and inclusive as possible.
If you have ideas or feedback that could help us improve, we'd love to hear from you. π

Learning to SUP in the ocean & catch a few waves yesterday was perfect timing first for our interstate guest from Victoria.
We've got wetsuits to hire to keep you warm but you'll be catching plenty of waves so you won't even notice the cool water!
