Highlights

  • Get ideal views of Wineglass Bay and the Freycinet Peninsula from the deck of a catamaran

  • Cash bar to taste local cool-climate wine

  • In-depth commentary about the area through live onboard commentary

Summary

Step aboard a catamaran and find a comfortable spot on board to take in the scenery of Wineglass Bay and the Freycinet Peninsula. The catamaran features both indoor and outdoor seating and floor-to-ceiling windows, so there's not a bad seat in the house. And, the cruise can proceed no matter the weather. Views of both of these natural areas are best enjoyed from on the water, not to mention the possibility of getting up close with local whales, dolphins, and sea birds. The boat drops anchor amid the natural scenery and, if you've selected the option at checkout, serves a Ploughman's lunch, consisting of local produce, such as salmon, cheese, and chocolate. Step up to the cash bar for beverages and cool-climate wines. As you travel, listen to live commentary about the local environment, flora, and fauna, learning much more about Wineglass Bay than you would by simply exploring on your own.
