Join Yandama on Country for a gentle and immersive cultural experience exploring the picturesque surrounds of Twofold Bay. Designed to foster a deeper connection with Country, this unique journey offers an opportunity to discover the rich culture, history and traditions of Australia’s First Peoples.
Beginning at Cocoa Beach, you will be welcomed by a local Indigenous guide before being led into the ceremonial Bunaan ring for a traditional welcome and smoking ceremony. As your experience unfolds, learn about the enduring connection to Country through stories, knowledge and cultural traditions passed down through generations.
Continue on a gentle guided walk through the stunning coastal landscapes surrounding Twofold Bay. Along the way, discover local plants, animals, foods, medicines and natural resources while taking in beautiful views of the bay and surrounding forests. Visit a significant cultural site and view traditional stone and wooden artefacts, gaining a deeper appreciation for the knowledge and practices of the local Indigenous community.
With opportunities to experience the landscape through an Indigenous cultural perspective and enjoy sweeping views across the bay, including a vantage point overlooking your cruise ship, this enriching experience concludes at Quarantine Bay.
