Itinerary

Get up-close and personal with the southern hemisphere’s highest sea cliffs and resident Australian fur seals. We start our adventure with a 1.5-hour scenic drive from Hobart to the Tasman National Park, or meet us at Fortescue Bay. This exhilarating adventure will then have you kayaking under some of Australia’s highest sea cliffs, gazing up at 200-metre-high fluted rock formations, peering into natural sea caves, photographing the towering Candlestick, and searching for climbers on the Totem Pole - a sheer column famed amongst thrill-seeking rock climbers. We enjoy a gourmet Tasmanian lunch at a deserted cove, paddle over a semi-submerged shipwreck and marvel at the abundant marine wildlife that lives along this coast, including resident fur seals, soaring sea eagles, diving gannets, cliff-nesting cormorants, peregrine falcons, and if we’re lucky - a pod of dolphins or a migrating whale. While kayaking experience is not necessary this tour can be physically demanding and you do need to be able to paddle at a relaxed pace for up to five hours (we do stop for snacks, drinks, photos, lunch and just to enjoy the view though!).
