We hosted family from the UK for Christmas and wanted to show them the very best of Victoria. We chose the Ultimate Peninsula Adventure with WAM, and it was the best decision we could have made! Nic, the founder, is a fantastic guide who went above and beyond to make us feel special. We started with Stand Up Paddleboarding - a first for some of us! Nic’s instructions were so clear that we felt comfortable and managed to stay on our boards at all times. The calm, uncrowded water made the experience feel truly exclusive. Nic took some pictures for us, which he later shared. This was followed by a stunning coastal hike and a refreshing dip in a crystal-clear rock pool. The water was cold, but it was worth it! Again, Nic was ready to offer snorkels so we could properly explore the rock pool. After that, we enjoyed a delicious vegetarian picnic lunch made with fresh produce from a local farm, Torello. After lunch, we headed for a wine tasting. We finished the day at the Peninsula Hot Springs, leaving us feeling completely refreshed and relaxed. We were especially impressed by Nic’s commitment to the environment and local businesses (he even provided reef-friendly sunscreen!). If we could give 10 stars, we would! We highly recommend WAM to anyone looking for an authentic Mornington Peninsula experience. We hope to come back again and try another adventure in the future.
