This cruise far exceeded my expectations! After initially feeling disappointed that it was a rainy day, this soon turned into 'how lucky are we'? The crew were magnificent and looked after everyone so well. The captain kept us all informed and, although it rained, this meant the colours of the rocks were more vivid and the waterfalls more spectacular. It also meant the wildlife were more active and we got to see fur seals, sea eagles, albatrosses and more! The lunch was very delicious too! A fun 4.5 hours that was very memorable!

Great adventure
Alwyn_M, Apr 2024
The beautiful coast line and very lucky to have calm waters as we entered the Tasmanian sea. Staff were very friendly & informative
Beautiful views of nature
Antonietta_L, Apr 2024
A wonderful crew took us around spectacular scenery. We followed a pod of dolphins, saw seals playing and enjoyed a lovely lunch. The only downside on the day was that the comms were playing up so we didn’t hear a lot of the commentary.
Cruising Delight

Even though the weather wasn't sunny it was a great day out on the water from Coles Bay to Wineglass Bay. Even if you don't have sea legs they look after you offered ginger. The lunch was great value

Best Day in Tassie
WENDY_H, Jan 2024
Cruising on a high powered catamaran, in the Tasman Sea, along the amazing coastline, to Wineglass bay with the sun shining and calm seas was one of the best days ever. Then it got even better when the skipper spotted several dolphin pods feeding. I've never seen so many dolphins together at one time. Later in the day we also viewed a few fur seals. The crew was lovely as well. It was a Wonderful experience!

A terrible experience
Belinda_L, Jan 2024
Frankly we shouldn't have gone out because of the poor weather. It was very rough and many of us spent a large portion of the trip using the sick bags. It curtailed our plans for the rest of the day/ evening as we were very unwell.
Response from Host, Feb 2024
Dear Belinda Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your Wineglass Bay Cruises experience. We are very disappointed to hear that you were unwell with motion sickness. We do operate in remote areas which are impacted by weather conditions. We try to ensure guests are full informed regarding adverse weather so they can make a decision to book another date or cancel if the conditions do not suit them. Thank you again for your feedback. Best Regards Melinda
Fabulous experience in all weather
Sue_S, Jan 2024
Loved. the crew and wildlife on our tour. While sea was too rough to get around to Wineglass Bay the crew still made the trip very worthwhile seeing a pod of dolphins close up, some seals and sea eagle.
