Discover the wild west coast of Tasmania on a full-day Gordon River cruise from Strahan. Your vessel departs from the Esplanade in Strahan at 9:00 AM and travels into Tasmania's World Heritage wilderness, where ancient rainforests, surrounding terrain and natural features line the Gordon River. Along the way you pass through Hells Gates, the narrow entrance to Macquarie Harbour, and see the historic lighthouses that mark this passage. A highlight of the day is a stop at Sarah Island, where a live guide leads a tour of the historic penal colony and brings Tasmania's convict history to life. On board, live commentary and videos share the history and culture of the region, and lunch is included with every ticket. Choose a seat in the centre of the main deck, a main deck window seat, or an upper deck window seat, which also comes with morning tea and a drink. The cruise lasts about 6 hours, and hotel pickup is not included, so make your own way to the wharf in Strahan.
