Cape Raoul Cruise with Port Arthur Historic Site Entry

This combo ticket pairs a short wilderness cruise with entry to the Port Arthur Historic Site, so you can add a scenic on-water trip to a day at one of Tasmania’s best-known historic attractions. The cruise heads from Port Arthur along the Tasman Peninsula coastline to Cape Raoul, where you’ll see high sea cliffs, caves, arches and dolerite columns dropping into the ocean. It’s a good pick if you want more than just the historic site and are keen to see the area’s coastline without committing to a long boat tour.

The cruise runs for 90 minutes and travels beyond the historic site towards Cape Raoul. Along the way, you’ll pass Point Puer and Isle of the Dead, then continue past features like Safety Cove, Crescent Bay and the cliffs and rock formations of Tasman National Park. The scenery is the main draw here: ancient cliffs, caves, arches, white-sand beaches and the striking dolerite columns at Cape Raoul. Keep an eye out for Australian fur seals resting near the base of the cape. Your ticket also includes entry to the Port Arthur Historic Site. The experience is wheelchair accessible, pram friendly and suitable for all fitness levels.
