Tasmania

5 Day Bruny Island Escape

Southern Tasmania is ideal for a shorter yacht charter, combining Hobart’s waterfront with Bruny Island, sheltered channels, forested shores and increasingly remote bays. South Bruny National Park is known for dramatic coastal scenery, wildlife and walking opportunities, while Adventure Bay and Jetty Beach offer protected stretches of sand suited to water-based exploration. This five-day itinerary prioritises relaxed cruising and generous time off the yacht rather than long passages. Guests move through the D’Entrecasteaux Channel, explore Bruny Island and continue south to Recherche Bay before returning toward Hobart, creating an approachable introduction to Tasmania’s maritime landscapes.

6 Day Freycinet Coast Escape

Explore Tasmania’s east coast on a six-day yacht journey from Hobart to the Tasman Peninsula, combining Port Arthur’s maritime history with Freycinet’s granite landscapes and island wildlife. Cruise north to Coles Bay and Wineglass Bay before turning south towards Schouten Island and Maria Island. Spend your days exploring accessible shore sites, walking along beaches and enjoying the changing coastline from the yacht. Finish around Fortescue Bay and the Tasman Peninsula, where wooded shores and rugged headlands provide a dramatic setting for the final day.

7 Day Southwest Wilderness Voyage

Port Davey is Tasmania’s most expedition-focused yacht destination. Protected within Southwest National Park, the Port Davey Marine Reserve and the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area, it is a vast landscape of rocky coast, deep harbours, mountain ranges and sheltered waterways with very limited access from the outside world. This seven-day itinerary is fundamentally different from the shorter routes. Established yacht operators typically allocate seven days and six nights to Hobart–Port Davey expeditions, stopping first at Recherche Bay and then sailing around Tasmania’s southern tip past the Maatsuyker Islands into Port Davey and Bathurst Harbour.
