Adventurer of The Year 2023

Congratulations to Dr Richard Barnes for winning the Australian Geographic Society's Adventurer of the Year award! 👏 On Sunday 18 February 2023, Dr Richard Barnes paddled into shore at Riverton, on New Zealand’s South Island. It was the end of a 1676km journey across the Tasman Sea – making Richard the first person in history to kayak solo, non-stop and unassisted from Australia to New Zealand. Richard departed from Short Beach in Hobart on 14 December 2022 onboard his self-built kayak Blue Moon. Paddling up to 10 hours a day, Richard kept his mind occupied by memorising laminated poems – Banjo Paterson’s The Man from Snowy River taking him 42 days – and chewing over cryptic crossword clues, trivia questions and alphabet word games. He published a blog detailing the highs and lows of each day, from playful interactions with sooty albatross and pods of dolphins, to tedious chores such as water desalination and scraping barnacles off Blue Moon’s hull.
