Aboard the Schouten Passage II eco-catamaran, you’ll explore stunning shorelines and witness the raw beauty of Tasmania’s iconic landscape. Enjoy local flavours and relax in the comfort of a spacious, family-friendly vessel.

Breathtaking Coastline, Exclusive Access

Departing from Coles Bay, this 4.5-hour cruise takes you around the stunning coastline of Freycinet National Park. Discover the legendary Hazards range, with its pink granite peaks and sparkling white-sand beaches.
Feel the thrill as we glide past secluded spots like Cooks and Bryans beaches. These hidden gems are only accessible by boat or a challenging bushwalk, giving you an insider’s view of the area’s natural beauty.

Wineglass Bay – A View You’ll Never Forget

Anchored in the heart of Wineglass Bay, you’ll have the chance to see this famous crescent of white sand and turquoise waters from a unique angle. Capture the scene with your camera or simply soak up the moment. There’s nothing quite like seeing Wineglass Bay from the water, surrounded by the tranquility of nature.

Savor a Local Tasmanian Feast

While you take in the sights, enjoy a Tasmanian Ploughman’s lunch served in a bento box, filled with fresh local produce. It’s the perfect taste of Tasmania’s flavours. For an extra treat, choose a cool-climate wine or local beverage from the onboard bar. Relax, indulge, and enjoy your meal with some of the best views in the world.

Wildlife Encounters and Hidden Gems

Keep an eye out for playful dolphins, Australian fur seals, and, if you’re lucky, migrating whales. Along the cliffs, you’ll spot sea eagles, shearwaters, and little penguins in their natural habitat. Our crew will share stories and insights into the region’s wildlife, history, and hidden gems along the way.
