For those not attending the morning Whale watching, explore the local area or just sit back and enjoy a coffee and good company or explore more back roads. Please be at Eden Visitors Information Centre on Weecoon St by midday.

Lunch venue in Eden to be confirmed, before we drive to Bombala (afternoon tea) via Narrabarba along Imlay Road, then via the back roads to Cooma.  Stopping at Cooma is an option on individuals that want to stretch their legs and have a brew or continue on home.

This is our last overnight trip for the year and will help inject welcome dollars into communities severely impacted by drought, fires and COVID-19.
