Escape the city and join us for a refreshing day in **Anglesea**, one of the Great Ocean Road’s beautiful coastal destinations. Here, eucalyptus forest meets the sea, ocean waves roll towards sandy beaches and scenic trails open onto wonderful coastal views.
We’ll begin with coffee, tea and snacks before setting out on an **easy-paced, guided 10 km hike** through coastal bushland. Along the way, we’ll enjoy fresh sea air, beautiful scenery and opportunities to spot kangaroos and native birds.
We’ll pause in nature for a gentle **guided meditation**, allowing time to breathe deeply, slow down and reconnect.
After the hike, we’ll gather for a **supplied Spanish vegetarian lunch** 🇪🇸, served with unlimited tea, coffee, snacks and refreshments. Everything is prepared for the group—simply relax, enjoy the food and share the moment.
Our afternoon continues with peaceful, beginner-friendly **kayaking**, followed by a beautiful **Anglesea coastal lookout** overlooking the cliffs, beaches and open sea.
Come solo or bring a friend. Expect welcoming company, relaxed conversation and a thoughtfully organised day combining nature, movement, Spanish flavours and the sea.
✨ **Hike the coast. Savour Spain. Breathe in the sea.**
