CENTRAL COAST - Avoca Lagoon - kayak - 22 March 2009

There are a number of spots to park your car and start. I started at Tramway street north Avoca.

This is an excellent kayak. The area is mostly natural and has some amazing features. The northern arm has channels running through the submerged trees, a bat colony at the far end and numerous spots to stop and walk around. The eastern arm has an island ‘Bareena Island’ and views to the beach. The southern arm goes under a bridge and is mostly lined within houses and cleared land. The western arm has small creeks at the far end that can be followed for quite a distance,

In general, there is an abundance of bird life and is quite a natural setting. The lagoon is emptied when water levels are too high.

Time: 4 hours
