This is not specifically about Vincentia, which is nice too, but I just want to mention Bendalong's Boat Harbour Beach, where got up-close and personal with stingrays, amazing experience, strongly recommended! Apparently Woollamia Boat Ramp is also a hotspot for stingrays, but we were unlucky on the day, there were too many boats that scared the rays away.

Unique experience - got us out of the house on a lovely warm evening. Saw as much as we could before it clouded over. Got vouchers to do this again as they had to cut it short. Very knowledgeable guide - comfy chairs and blankets - would definitely recommend. Would give 5 stars if not cloudy.

Lovely spot with open skies in a relaxed setting for us to talk about all things astronomical. We saw planets (usually rare), satellites, a shooting star, and learnt about constellations and galaxies. Thank you Caroline and Dmitri for the experience!

Dimitri’s expertise is incredible. This is the first time we were able to see the rings of Saturn and Jupiter’s moons. He was able to answer question precisely then expanded on the question. We plan to book this experience again for the winter skies
Do it!!

We thoroughly enjoyed the star gazing night in Jervis Bay. It was a very windy night, so they moved the location to an alternative beach nearby where we were completely protected from the wind. The skies are surprisingly dark in Jervis Bay, so it was an excellent location for it. The evening was very relaxed and Dimitri was a wonderful, enthusiastic, knowledgeable and fun guide. He allowed questions from the group to shape the conversation and was open to discuss anything from very basic to enthusiast level. He also told stories and gave facts about the planets and stars we were viewing. Everyone was able to look through the telescope at various subjects and the 90 minutes flew by. I would highly recommend.
When you love the nature and the stars, it is a good experience.

We were requested to shift our booking to the 9:30 pm session. We agreed to do it. It was a small group which was good and the guests had chances to ask the questions to Tom. Tom was very knowledgeable. We enjoyed the session. We were hoping that we would be provided with a blanket as we were sitting on the beach at a cold night. The mats were provided to us though.

We had a fabulous time at our stargazing tour. We joined some couples and families to learn a lot about the night sky. Dimitri has a wealth of knowledge and passion and made sure everyone felt included. The evening started off cloudy and we thought it may not go ahead but Caroline and Dimitri communicated very well with us and made sure we still got to have a great stargazing experience. Well worth it.
Great family fun activity

Excellent experience. Our 3 young children enjoyed it thoroughly. Seeing Saturn through the telescope was next level incredible. To top things off, the bioluminescence in the waves started to appear as we wrapped things up!
Amazing stargazing!

I can highly recommend stargazing with Dimitry. He is so passionate and knowledgeable and brings the sky to life with information and stories. The Milky Way and constellations were magnificent in the clear sky and the superb telescopes allowed a view of Saturn and its moon Titan. We even saw a shooting star, also bioluminescence in the sea! Thank you Dimitry and Caroline. I will book again next time I’m in Jervis Bay.
Great learning experience

Had a great experience learning and looking at the stars and planets with Dimitri and Caroline. It was very informative with a bit of humour added in. It was really interesting to see the moon, stars and planets through the telescope. Would definitely recommend it.
