An unforgettable three hour wilderness cruise along the spectacular coastline between Port Arthur and Eaglehawk Neck in southern Tasmania. The cruise travels beneath the highest vertical sea cliffs in the Southern Hemisphere and guests explore waterfalls, rock formations, archways and deep-sea caves. The coastline is part of the Tasman National Park and it is home to a variety of wildlife including hundreds of seals, migrating whales and abundant sea birds in their thousands. At any time of the year you’re likely to see the feeding frenzy of diving gannets, albatross and sea eagles wheeling on the wind, cliff-nesting cormorants and peregrine falcons, or a pod of playful dolphins surfing the bow wave of the boat.

The highly-trained interpretive guides love what they do – they work hard to ensure that the experience is fun, entertaining and informative.

The custom built yellow boats are ideal for viewing the spectacular coastline and wildlife of the Tasman Peninsula. Each vessel holds a maximum of 43 guests. Covered open-air tiered seating means an excellent all-round view and connection with the environment. Nicknamed the ‘4WD’s of the sea’ for their unequaled sea-keeping abilities these boats are safe, comfortable and gentle on the environment due to their fuel efficiency and low emission operation.
