CORONA VIRUS UPDATE
Based on the Australian Federal Government advice, we will continue with running our small group tours and hires, comprising of individuals who confirm they do not fall into any of the high risk categories.
Current advice (here) suggests that unless you are in one of the particular target groups, there is no need to avoid normal activities. We are encouraging you to help prevent the spread of the virus by improved hand hygiene, covering your cough and sneezes, exercising personal responsibility for social distancing measures while on tour and, if unwell, not attending your tour.
The below has been implemented into our Risk Assessment:
Perth Waterbike Adventures will be sanitizing all water bikes after each ride.
Provide hand sanitiser at our site for all participants.
Confirm participants are not a in a target group per the above.
Perth Waterbike Adventures would like to ensure our clients that we are taking all the necessary precautions for their well being during these unprecedented times.
COVID-19 is affecting everyone. It is going to be an interesting journey, as a start up small business owner. We are strapped up and ready for the ride.
There has been such a phenomenal response to our launch. We believe that with Perth communities interest and support, this EXCITING, NEW and UNIQUE water activity will be going from strength the strength. #strongerTogether
We operate in a low human traffic area at our Matilda Bay launch site next to the Boat Ramp, and on the water.
We hope that over this period, you will take the time out to immerse yourself in nature away from the crowds and join us to cycle ON Water!
