Throughout your journey, your experienced guide shares insights about this region’s remarkable geological formations, stunning coastlines and rich convict history.

Unforgettable 90-Minute Cruise

Upon arriving at Port Arthur, board a coastal cruise exploring the dramatic beauty of Cape Raoul and the sea cliffs of the Tasman Peninsula. Set sail on a 90-minute journey that brings Tasmania’s southernmost wonders up close. The boat glides past soaring basalt cliffs, mysterious sea caves and impressive archways carved by ocean waves over countless years. With panoramic views, you’ll spot crescents of white sand beaches, including the famed Safety Cove and Crescent Bay.

Wildlife and Natural Sights

Bring your camera for glimpses of Tasmania’s vibrant marine life. Look out for playful dolphins swimming alongside the boat or seals lounging at the base of the cliffs. If you’re lucky, you might spot migratory whales during the right season, as well as seabirds such as albatrosses and sea eagles gliding high above the waves. The cruise navigates by iconic landmarks like Cape Pillar, Tasman Island and the windswept West Arthur Head.

Sights of Historical Significance

As you return from the cruise, prepare to explore the Port Arthur Historic Site, one of Australia’s most significant convict heritage locations and inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list. Follow your guide on a comprehensive tour as you discover the preserved ruins, learn about the lives of the convicts and guards, and hear stories that shaped modern Tasmania. En route, you'll also pass haunting points of interest like Point Puer and the Isle of the Dead.

Cape Raoul Exploration

The journey continues past West Arthur Head to the towering cliffs of Cape Raoul. This area is renowned for its dramatic landscapes, striking ocean views and unique wildlife population.
