What to expect
With soaring sea cliffs and monumental rock formations, the Tasman National Park is a coastal wonderland. Here the waters of the Tasman Sea collide with the towering ancient cliffs of the Tasman Peninsula, creating dramatic caves and arches, ending spectacularly at Cape Raoul, its dolerite columns like steps down into the ocean waters
The Tasman National Park lies close to the UNESCO World Heritage listed Port Arthur Historic Site, where the formidable coastal terrain added to the feared reputation of the brutal penal colony. Today this historic location stands as one of Australia’s premier attractions, offering a gateway to the region’s natural beauty
Reviews
The ride duration was perfect for us to cruise around the coast. The weather was perfect to look around Cape Raoul as well as the seals and dolphins in the sea. The crew on board were experienced as guides and friendly to talk around with guests and help with pictures. Highly Recommended for Port Arthur day trip.
Guides are professional and friendly. Thank you for giving such amazing experience. The Cape Raoul is a-must-see for sure but the seals and dolphins are like extras that fulfilled my heart. Also this package is perfect for my day plan, it took not more than 2 hrs so I still have time to walk in the historic site before going home.
Friendly captain and staff. We were lucky with the weather, it was a beautiful day out in the sea, saw so many dolphins and seals; stunning scenery, definitely a must try
prepare for the big wave during the trip. but very nice view and really worth to visit.
You need to buy admission tickets in addition to the boat tickets to board. This important detail should be in the title; otherwise, it's easily missed. For two adults and two children, the boat tickets were NT$9,000 and the admission tickets were NT$2,500, totaling NT$11,500 for a 1.5-hour ride. I found it a bit underwhelming and not worth the price. On August 14, 2025, we only saw seals, no dolphins or other animals, so be prepared for that when you book. The scenery was spectacular, and the captain was diligent. The boat was large and stable, which was a plus. A three-hour cruise costs about the same but probably goes further out to sea! I took the 1.5-hour tour, so we probably didn't go out far enough to spot dolphins.
nice tour for travelers with limited time
It's absolutely fantastic! While it's not cheap, it's definitely worth seeing. These reefs are 170 million years old, and the park is large enough to explore for 2-3 hours.
The historical tour was excellent and very interesting. The ferry was clean and well maintained, everything ran on time, and the scenery was beautiful throughout the trip. The bus was also quite comfortable. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience.
everything was fine . the captain and assistant was good . The weather was also good we saw dolphins , it was amazing . it was big waves , and windy, that was good experiance for us. I reccomend this excursion
The weather wasn't great, and the waves were too big to go to Ula Cape, which I really wanted to see... So the tour company gave a partial refund, which was a nice compensation! Although I got seasick, the scenery was still beautiful 👍
