What to expect

Depart from Coles Bay aboard the Schouten Passage II for a cruise that reveals Wineglass Bay from the water. Travel along the spectacular Freycinet Peninsula, with towering granite cliffs, secluded coves, and mysterious sea caves. Keep your eyes open for abundant wildlife, from little penguins and playful seals to pods of dolphins and, during migration, whales.

During the journey, relax in the spacious Vista Lounge with floor-to-ceiling windows and outdoor decks offering panoramic views. Learn about local history, landmarks, and wildlife through engaging onboard commentary. You’ll also have the option to pre-book and enjoy a freshly prepared Ploughman’s style lunch, or simply purchase drinks and snacks from the onboard bar. Combining iconic scenery, wildlife encounters, and flexible dining, this cruise is one of the best ways to experience Wineglass Bay.
