Itinerary

  • World Heritage Cruises

    9am daily your cruise departs Strahan Your first point of interest is Hells Gates, the narrow-channel entrance from the wild Southern Ocean to Macquarie Harbour. Continue along the harbour to see aquaculture pens stocked with thousands of ocean trout and Atlantic salmon. Your first stop off the boat is Sarah Island, a one hour guided tour on the island conveys a keen appreciation of the harsh conditions at what was Tasmania's first and perhaps most notorious penal settlement. Step back on-board and while enjoying your lunch you will cruise slowly along the majestic Gordon River and rediscover serenity while gliding deep into the ancient rainforest. Disembark at Heritage Landing for a stroll along the boardwalk through the Unesco listed Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park and see the hushed, lichen-covered rainforest and one of its oldest inhabitants a 2000-year-old Huon Pine tree. Board once more and sit back and relax while you make your journey back to Strahan.

Fabulous cruise into wilderness

Published on Feb, 2025

Great trip, wonderful scenery, helpful informative staff. Lunch was good. We were on the main deck (not the more expensive upper deck) and spent a lot of time outside the front of the boat, blowy but beautiful.

Best tour in Strahan! Bar none!

Published on Feb, 2025

Great Captain and crew and guides! First rate boat! Make sure to book nightly show too afterwards as it’s relevant to tour! The Ship that Never Was- great performance!
