Departing 1 December 2025 | 11 Days | Discovery Expedition
Revel in the opportunity to tread some of Tasmania’s greatest coastal tracks while you circumnavigate this island state by sea.
Land on remote pristine beaches; trek through coastal heath, buttongrass moorlands, lush temperate rainforests and tall eucalypt woodlands; and drink in the stunning vistas from towering dolerite peaks.
Discover far-flung archipelagos and explore islands whose only permanent inhabitants include Bennett’s wallabies, wombats, potoroos, possums and pademelons. Cruise the wild, storm-swept coastlines and sheltered, shimmering bays. Experience a variety of trekking treasures on Bruny, Flinders and Maria Islands.
Delight in the raucousness of fur seal colonies and the majesty of soaring shy albatross or gannets in the skies. Create and collate a treasured suite of memories – on foot or by sea – with extraordinary adventures on offer each day.
Expedition Highlights
- Head off each day for a range of adventures and explorations, that may include hiking options, wildlife watching, Zodiac cruises, or kayaking.
- Access some of the best (and least-known) walks in Tasmania, including those on Bruny, Flinders and Maria Island.
- At the remote Maatsuyker Islands, spy the most southerly lighthouse in Australia, and the scores of seabirds that call it home.
- On Maria Island – nicknamed Tasmania’s “Noah’s Ark” – enjoy an abundance of native wildlife, keeping an eye out for all but one of Tassie’s 12 endemic bird species.
- Learn about Tasmania’s long human history, fascinating geology, and unique biota from our onboard experts.
