Traveler reviews
Great few hours out on the boat
Outstanding tour of the most stunning coastline in Australia. We had 7 on the tour and they can seat 50. We were so lucky to get the best possible weather. Along with the incredible cliffs and rugged shoreline we saw humpbacks, fur seals-both Australian and long nosed, shy albatross, bullers albatross, Indian yellow nosed albatross, black faced cormorants, kelp gulls. The two lads Josh and Tim are incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and enthusiastic. They really know their stuff. The boat is super comfortable. Absolutely do this tour in winter to have a chance of spotting whales.
highly recommended

Cape Roual Cruise in Port Arthur
Great boat ride, just the right timing. Beautiful views all the way. The several stops for photo shoots were great. Crew very knowledgeable
Incredible Cruise
The cruise to Cape Raoul was fabulous. The boat was very comfortable and very safe. The scenery was out of this world, the rock pillars at the Cape have to be seen to be believed. We saw two varieties of seal and numerous dolphins. The crew were fantastic.. We also thoroughly enjoyed the Port Arthur historic site, where we spent several hours exploring the buildings and learning about the lives of the convicts and others who lived there.
