Description

Feed alpacas at Iron Creek, savour fresh Blue Lagoon oysters, enjoy a 1.5-hr Cape Raoul coastal cruise, and explore the historic ruins of Port Arthur.
Begin your day at Iron Creek Bay, where you can get up close and personal with friendly animals. Grab some animal feed and enjoy interacting with fluffy alpacas, roaming peacocks, sheep, and ducks. Take some time to explore the farm and snap some photos.

Next, head to Blue Lagoon Oysters for an unforgettable lunch stop. Taste Tasmania’s famous premium gold lip oysters, harvested fresh straight from the cool, pristine marine waters right in front of you. Enjoy a succulent seafood lunch paired with local Tasmanian wine or cider while taking in the serene coastal views.

Arrive at the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Port Arthur Historic Site for a full afternoon of discovery. Board the cruise vessel for an immersive journey around the harbor. Explore the rugged coastline and learn the haunting history of the Isle of the Dead (the final resting place for convicts and soldiers) and Point Puer (the British Empire's first boys' prison).

Next, gear up for the spectacular 1.5-hour Cape Raoul Wilderness Cruise, where you will marvel at towering vertical cliffs, deep sea caves, and local marine wildlife.

Spend the rest of your time walking among the beautifully preserved sandstone ruins. Visit the iconic Penitentiary, the Separate Prison, and the Commandant’s House to uncover the gripping stories of Australia’s convict past.
