Tasmania's Ultimate Environmental Travel Adventure

See...towering crags, islands and wave-cut sea caves.
Feel...the fresh breeze in your face and the power of the sea.
Hear...the bark of seals and the cry of seabirds.
Smell...kelp in a sea cave and the salty tang of the ocean.
Touch...the true spirit of wild nature.

Untouched wilderness and abundant wildlife are the highlights of this 3hour, 50 km Environmental Cruise.

On Bruny Island at Adventure Bay, you'll board one of our world class vessels and head out of the historic and beautiful bay, just as James Cook, William Bligh and Abel Tasman did.

Rounding Fluted Cape and cruising alongside some of Australia's highest sea cliffs, you'll see the landscape exactly as the explorers saw it. Unchanged for thousands of years, the coastline of the South Bruny National Park is a remote and wonderful place.

Our enthusiastic and knowledgeable guides know every inch of this dramatic and spectacular coastline. They'll entertain you with some amazing sea stories – tales of kelp and killer whales, seals and sunfish, explorers and whalers.

Where the Tasman Sea meets the Southern Ocean

"You'll drift up close and listen to the awesome 'Breathing Rock', enter deep sea caves, pass through the narrow gap between the coast and 'The Monument' and feel the power of nature at the point where the Tasman Sea meets the might of the Southern Ocean".

You'll be kept busy watching the prolific native wildlife in the sea, on land and in the air. We can guarantee seals and seabirds, but how many other species will you see?

Not just Tasmania's best, but simply one of the world's great environmental travel experiences.

Your ticket will help conserve and protect this wonderful place

This year, Bruny island Charters, Tasman Island Cruises and WILDCARE Inc established the Tasmanian Coast Conservation Fund to provide support to the Tasmanian Parks & Wildlife Service in their work of managing the national parks, marine reserves and marine wildlife along the spectacular coastlines of Tasmania. This exciting new partnership for conservation is the first of its kind in Tasmania.

Through this unique fund, a portion of every ticket we sell will help conserve and protect the unique area that our cruises explore.
