River Derwent Guided Cruise

Cruise in comfort across two spacious indoor levels with floor-to-ceiling windows, providing uninterrupted views in all weather conditions. Peppermint Bay II is exceptionally stable and designed for smooth cruising, making it ideal for relaxed sightseeing. 

For those who love open-air viewing and photography, the vessel features three outdoor decks, including viewing areas at the bow, stern, and the very top deck, perfect for capturing Hobart’s skyline, the Shot Tower, Alum Cliffs, and Iron Pot Lighthouse (weather permitting). 

Enhance your cruise with a selection of locally sourced Tasmanian produce, including cheeses from the d’Entrecasteaux Channel and Bruny Island, regional wines, and refreshing local beverages available for purchase, that reflect the waterways and regions you cruise through. 

This guided experience goes beyond a simple harbor loop. It’s a curated exploration of the Derwent’s geology, Indigenous and European history, maritime heritage, and local wildlife.
