Begin your full-day adventure from Hobart’s historic Constitution Dock, boarding a custom-built vessel with a spacious enclosed cabin and comfortable seating. Cruise down the Derwent River into the sheltered waters of the D’Entrecasteaux Channel, surrounded by the wild beauty of Bruny Island. Along the way, your local guides share stories of the coastline, wildlife, and pristine environment.
Taste the ocean’s freshest flavours as you enjoy oysters straight from the shell in a secluded bay. Watch your guides dive for abalone and sea urchin, harvested right before your eyes. Back on board, indulge in a seafood banquet featuring rock lobster, abalone, sea urchin, oysters, sashimi, artisan bread, salads, and cheeses. Each dish is paired with premium Tasmanian wines, sparkling, boutique beers, cider, and organic juices. This is an unforgettable Bruny Island experience that combines adventure, culture, and gourmet indulgence.

Both fires were very knowledgeable and I learnt some tips with cooking fresh caught seafood!

Come hungry—the cruise serves a generous seafood feast rather than a light tasting. It includes rock lobster, abalone, sea urchin, oysters and calamari, paired with fresh local breads, salads and artisan cheeses.
Yes. Tasmanian wine and sparkling, boutique beer, cider and locally made organic juices are included with the seafood feast.
A range of dietary requirements can be accommodated with advance notice, although the experience is built around shellfish and seafood. After booking, please contact us with any dietary requirements.
The cruise mainly explores the sheltered waters of the D’Entrecasteaux Channel, and the operator reports a low incidence of seasickness. Sit towards the rear, keep your eyes on the horizon and let the crew know early if you feel unwell; natural ginger tablets are also available on board.
The custom-built boat has a spacious enclosed cabin and leather seating, giving you a comfortable place out of the wind. Bring a warm jacket and dress in layers, as part of the experience is enjoyed outside and Tasmanian conditions can change quickly.
The Hobart office has ramped access, but the vessel requires a 400 mm step to board and has several internal steps, so the cruise is not wheelchair accessible. Guests with limited mobility who can manage the steps can still be assisted by the trained crew.
The cruise is limited to 12 guests and looked after by two local guides. That keeps the day relaxed and personal, with plenty of time to enjoy the seafood, scenery and stories along the way.
There is no minimum age, but this full-day seafood cruise is not recommended for young children. It best suits children who are comfortable spending the day on the water and who will enjoy a seafood-focused menu.
