Tamar River Cruises

Tamar River Cruises offer cruises on the beautiful Tamar River in Launceston, in Northern Tasmania. Experience the excitement and history of Launceston's spectacular Tamar River from the comfort of the unique vessels. The Tamar River is Australia's longest navigable tidal estuary and supports Australia's third oldest city, Launceston. Informative commentary from local skippers takes you on a historical journey where you will discover the stories and tales that shaped Launceston and the magnificent Tamar Valley. Travel into the heart of the Tamar and view the navigable section of the spectacular Cataract Gorge. Sample the delights of local wines and cheeses as you view breathtaking scenery, world-class vineyards, historical buildings, and rural settings. Frequent encounters with wildlife including sea eagles, wild duck, black swans, pelicans, plus many other varieties of water-fowl and occasionally playful seals are common.
