Hobart Kayaking
Hobart Kayaking
Experienced guides will provide comprehensive paddling instructions before you take to the water and explore the shoreline of historic Battery Point.
Bruny Island lies off the southeast coast of Tasmania, some 25 kilometres from Hobart. The island is an unspoilt haven with spectacular scenery and a landscape which varies from pasture to rainforest. It boasts glorious miles of sandy beaches and rugged cliffs.
Leaving Hobart in the morning you will join your host, Robert, where the highlights of this relaxing trip are a cruise into untouched wilderness and abundant wildlife. The vessel is designed to provide you with a comfortable place to interact as closely as possible with the diverse wildlife in the area. Along the way you can visit the secluded caves and sculptured rocky islands that fringe Bruny National Park, along with Friar Rocks, home to numerous and curious Australian fur seals. The wildlife is numerous and includes dolphins, fairy penguins, white-bellied sea eagles, shy albatrosses (or shy mollymawk), Australasian gannets, black-faced and great cormorants. You may even observe the migrating southern right or humpback whales.
These activities are designed to give you the most authentic experiences around where you're staying. We work with local guides, who use their knowledge and often a resident's eye to show you the main sights and more out-of-the-way attractions. Our specialists can suggest tours and activities that will introduce you to the local ways of life.
