About this tour

Your skipper navigates the custom-built eco-cruiser into sea caves, beneath towering cliff walls and across open water where seals, dolphins and seabirds patrol their territory. This isn't a passive float—expect the vessel to move with genuine purpose as it searches the wild margins where land and ocean collide.

What to expect
You'll board a purpose-built eco-cruiser and push away from Adventure Bay into open water. The boat moves along Bruny's raw coastline, slowing to probe caves and navigate close to cliff edges where you spot nesting birds and lounging seals. Ocean conditions vary—sometimes glassy, sometimes choppy enough to feel the Southern Ocean's weight. Your guide reads the wildlife and water, adjusting the route to follow dolphins or investigate seal colonies. Bring your camera steady and expect to get damp despite the waterproof jacket.
