Business Yamba

Right on schedule, doing their annual lap past Yamba, Iluka and Brooms Head like they own the place. (They kind of do.)

Want the scoop on where to see them: https://www.myclarencevalley.com/stories/eyes-on-the-horizon-your-guide-to-whale-watching-in-the-clarence-valley/

Every year between May and October, humpbacks make the trip from Antarctic feeding grounds up to warmer waters in the north and the Clarence Valley coast sits right in the middle of that commute.

Some of them travel up to 19,000km. Which is basically Yamba to Alaska and back again. We're tired just thinking about it.

Think of some of your favourite Clarence Valley businesses. Now tag them in this post to encourage them to apply for the Clarence Valley Business Awards 👇

One of the most common questions we hear about the awards is, “do I have to self nominate??”

The answer is yes. The business has to write the application, it’s not something a customer or member of the public can nominate you for.

And we know that can feel kind of uncomfortable.

Our favourite businesses deserve to be recognised though, to celebrate their own achievements and especially their team 🙌

Tag a business you love 🥰

Tag a business who you know is award-worthy but might be reluctant to apply, sometimes we need a tap on the shoulder to put ourselves forward.
