Tasman Peninsula Wilderness Cruise from Port Arthur

This is a fast-paced wilderness cruise along the rugged Tasman Peninsula coastline, departing from Port Arthur. Over three hours on the water, you’ll travel between Eaglehawk Neck and Port Arthur to see towering sea cliffs, deep sea caves and the kind of coastline that’s hard to appreciate properly from land. Wildlife sightings can include seals, dolphins, sea eagles and albatross. A local guide is included, and waterproof outerwear is provided, which matters given the exposed conditions.

You’ll need to arrive by 9:15am for a briefing before a short bus transfer to the boat. Once underway, the cruise follows the dramatic coastline, with the guide pointing out major natural features and wildlife along the way. The route includes the highest vertical sea cliffs in the Southern Hemisphere and close-up access into deep sea caves, depending on conditions. The trip runs year-round in all weather, so expect a real open-water experience and dress for the conditions, even with the supplied jacket.
