Port Arthur: Cape Raoul Wilderness Cruise

Embark on a 90-minute wilderness cruise from Port Arthur Historic Site to Cape Raoul. Cruise past the cliffs, caves, arches, and white sand beaches of the Tasman Peninsula. Keep an eye out for wildlife including dolphins, migrating whales, and seals.

Cruise past significant historical sites like Point Puer and Isle of the Dead before marvelling at the gorgeous white sands of Safety Cove and the tall dunes of Crescent Bay, tucked into the rocky and rugged coast. Enjoy panoramic views across to Cape Pillar and iconic Tasman Island.

Mt Brown provides a stunning backdrop as you cruise past West Arthur Head to Cape Raoul. Keep an eye out for the cheeky Australian fur seals that lounge at the base of the columnar dolerite cliffs of Cape Raoul. Look up to witness the sheer magnitude of these 170-million-year-old cliffs, rising from the ocean's edge over 250 meters to touch the sky.

Keep your eyes peeled skywards for wildlife including majestic albatrosses, white bellied sea eagles, and other seabirds that soar above the coastline. Watch for dolphins that love to play in the bow wave of the boat and whales that cruise the southeastern coastline during the southern migration.
