Expressions of Interest Required

The club is proposing to conduct a six day excursion to the Abrolhos Islands in late September 2016 as one of the pre ANN2016 Get-together excursions. The number of participants will be limited to 30. Priority will be given to people who register for the Get-together. Early indications are that most, if not all, the places will be filled by those attending the Get-together.

It has been suggested the club run a similar excursion in late 2015/early 2016 as a “dry run” for the later excursion. This would be subject to a minimum of 20 people participating.

The trip is based upon leaving Perth on a Thursday (typically 7:30AM) and visiting the Nambung National Park or similar on our way to Geraldton.

Boarding the tour boat Thursday late afternoon, dinner on board and traveling overnight to the Abrolhos in a combination of twin and double rooms (all with en-suites).

Stay at Abrolhos Islands Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights (on board).

Return from Abrolhos Islands Monday afternoon with overnight accommodation in our on board cabins but dining in Geraldton.

An early morning departure from our cabins on the boat and breakfast on shore in Geraldton, before returning to Perth for Tuesday afternoon.

 The above programme is indicative only and is subject to the vessel we are proposing to use being available. A final cost has not yet been provided but is likely to be around $2,400 per person. A cheaper price may be possible if we have more than 20 participants.

If you are seriously interested in participating in the “dry run” please contact Don Poynton no later than 31 July 2015.
