What To Expect

Get up-close and personal with the southern hemisphere’s highest sea cliffs and resident Australian fur seals.

We start our adventure with a 1.5-hour scenic drive from Hobart to the Tasman National Park, or meet us at Fortescue Bay. This exhilarating adventure will then have you kayaking under some of Australia’s highest sea cliffs, gazing up at 200-metre-high fluted rock formations, peering into natural sea caves, photographing the towering Candlestick, and searching for climbers on the Totem Pole - a sheer column famed amongst thrill-seeking rock climbers.

We enjoy a gourmet Tasmanian lunch at a deserted cove, paddle over a semi-submerged shipwreck and marvel at the abundant marine wildlife that lives along this coast, including resident fur seals, soaring sea eagles, diving gannets, cliff-nesting cormorants, peregrine falcons, and if we’re lucky - a pod of dolphins or a migrating whale.

While kayaking experience is not necessary this tour can be physically demanding and you do need to be able to paddle at a relaxed pace for up to five hours (we do stop for snacks, drinks, photos, lunch and just to enjoy the view though!).

City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
