Experience a Refreshing Journey Along Tasmania’s Rugged Coastline
Think coastal hikes and secluded landings, calm bays by kayak and cold-water plunges. Or simply find stillness—star bathing on the top deck or savouring a beachside picnic in solitude. Evenings feature small plate dining and canapés, accompanied by Tasmanian wines and sunset toasts. With over ten optional experiences, this journey is flexible and yours to shape, leaving plenty of time to roam and reset.
Coral Discoverer
Coral Discoverer is exceptionally nimble and manoeuvrable, with a shallow draught to get up close to destinations. Much loved by loyal Xplorers for its truly intimate onboard atmosphere, Coral Discoverer carries a maximum of 72 guests.
Highlights
Enjoy active days on foot or water with guided hikes, beach strolls, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and optional cold-water swims.
Uncover Tasmania’s natural beauty as you explore Wineglass Bay, Bruny Island, Maria Island, and the remote wilderness of Port Davey and Breaksea Islands.
Experience local wildlife and history with visits to convict sites, seabird colonies, and Melaleuca, home to the endangered orange-bellied parrot and Deny King Museum.
Take time to unwind with a stretch on the beach, browse the onboard library, stargaze from the deck, or enjoy a quiet moment with a book and a view.
Savour regional flavours with shared plate dining, sunset BBQs, and tastings of Tasmanian oysters, cheeses, and wines.
Celebrate the journey with sparkling sailaway, sunset toasts, and a scenic finale past Maatsuyker Island and Australia’s southernmost lighthouse.
