Jess at ‘Navigate Expeditions’ provided a service beyond my wildest expectations. Knowledgeable, exemplary, amazing, superlatives fail me in my effort to describe her provision of service for the environmentally conscious visitor to the Bermagui, Tathra, Merimbula, Eden areas.
For those interested in exploring the beautiful Far South Coast then I would highly recommend you contact Jess. She offers a variety of choices to suit most people. Here you will be dealing with an extraordinary guide and hostess. My rating without hesitation is 5/5.

Jess and Laurence and her team are amazing. They will make your trip super special and they cater for all occasions. They both go above and beyond to educate and care for their guests. Highly recommend! My kids loved it and we learnt a lot about the Sapphire Coast and had some amazing hikes and experiences.

We did the Light to Light walk with Navigate Expeditions in May. It was a fabulous mixture of challenge and luxury with spectacular walks over three days – beautiful scenery, interesting guides and then delicious food and comfortable accommodation back at the lighthouse; with wombats, whales, interesting companions and more amazing ocean views.

We did the Kayak and Shuck tour on the Pambula River. I learned so much about oysters from at Broadwater Oysters from Mel…I had no idea that oysters from Merimbula can taste different from Pambula oysters…wow! Jess from Navigate Expeditions is very cheery, experienced and her enthusiasm about the region is very infectious. Highly recommend!

The kayak and shuck tour along Pambula River was a beautiful and immersive way to see local wildlife, enjoy the crystal clear waters of the Sapphire Coast, and cruise down the river to be met by Mel from Broadwater Oysters who gave us an exclusive look at the local Sydney Rock Oyster and my favourite of all, taught us how to shuck an oyster with ease. Highly recommend this tour, Jess has done an amazing job at curating and guiding this tour. Thank you Jess and team.

What a fabulous experience we had with Jess on our tour through the Mimosa Rocks National Park. Her knowledge of the local landscape was exceptional, the views spectacular, and the afternoon tea she served was seriously the best caramel slice I have ever tasted. Highly recommend Jess and Navigate Expeditions.

I had a wonderful day with Lawerence on the warf to warf walk at Tathra/Merimbula. I wish I had time to do both days as the weather was perfect, scenery was incredible and the guide was interesting and knowledgeable. Jess was great at communicating before the walk and had organised a delicious lunch and snacks. I would recommend Navigate Expeditions to anyone wanting to spend a great day out in nature.

What a great way to spend a morning. Everything was so well organised and seeing the local native wildlife was a bonus. Loved learning how to shuck oysters. A must do experience! 

The tours added so much to my stay in Tathra.  They were great.  It was so nice to do things I’ve never done before.  It’s true, you’re never too old! I’m so glad I went on the tours and look forward to visiting again and doing more tours with you in the future.

Thanks again Jess, the tour was amazing, we all had such a great time and Lawrence was a magnificent guide.
