Explore Beautiful Bruny
Arguably Tasmania's best day trip! At the end of this day, you will understand why the tourist numbers have doubled in the past 4 years! Bruny Island has a little bit of everything mainland Tasmania has - world class beaches, national parks, rugged coastline and native wildlife matched with the finest local produce from the ocean and the land.
While it's impossible to do everything in one day, we have designed various tours to fit in with the day’s weather conditions so we can provide the most enjoyable experience. You can expect an active (easy/moderate level) morning with nature walks, albino wallaby spotting, spectacular scenery lookouts, exploring pristine beaches and lagoon (swimming optional). This tour takes you off the beaten track and into areas that are only accessible by walking tracks that only locals know about.
After an adventurous morning, it will be time to pull it back a gear as we head for lunch at the Bruny Hotel, with many options to suit budgets and dietary requirements. After lunch, unwind and relax as we sample some award winning local produce. Honey, chocolate fudge, beverages and oysters are all possibilities (time pending and at own cost)!
Some of the things you can expect to see and do:
(some will be weather and time permitting)
- Temperate rainforest walk
- Walking tracks (easy to moderate level)
- Swimming (weather permitting)
- Wildlife spotting (we know some of the hiding spots of the elusive albino wallaby which may allow for a spotting!)
- Viewing platform at the Neck
- Cape Bruny Lighthouse
- Secret water holes and lagoons
- Picturesque beaches
- Sample award-winning food at your own cost, like honey, chocolate and oysters.
- Lunch stop (own cost)
- Please note: It is impossible to go to every attraction in a day. So we like to mix up the days to best suit the group on board for the day and to suit the weather conditions to ensure you guys get the best day possible without it feeling rushed.

Some of the things you can expect to see and do
This casual walk will take you through a lush rainforest that runs alongside the relaxing Waterfall Creek.
This easy, twenty minute walk will allow you to take in the beautiful scenery and peaceful ambience of the rainforest whilst breathing in some of the freshest air Tasmania has to offer.
Bruny Island is home to countless beaches, each as picturesque as the other.
Be prepared to be in awe of their natural beauty, clear water and pristine sand as you visit some of our favourite beaches on the island.
We will bring along our bat and ball if you are up for a game of beach cricket!
Here is your next Instagram shot! Arguably the most iconic and most recognised landmark on the island, the lookout at the Neck never fails to disappoint.
Walk up the 279 timber steps to be rewarded with breathtaking 360 degree views of the island. Alongside the spectacular views, keep an eye out in the dunes for some burrows, fairy penguins and mutton birds nest here!
Keep on the lookout! Bruny Island is a haven for a variety of Tasmania's unique native wildlife. Perhaps the most special is the albino wallaby, a rare species that is thriving on the island.
Keep your cameras at the ready on our walks and when we take you to a secret spot that the illusive albino wallaby is known to visit. You never know your luck!
Depending on the days forecast, the track we choose to take you on will vary. Rest assured that each track offers something unique to experience.
From visiting the second tallest sea cliffs in Australia and the spectacular views they offer to exploring secluded beaches to soaking up amazing views from panoramic lookouts, you are sure to be impressed.
These walks vary in duration and require a moderate level of fitness.
Located at the southern tip of the island, the convict built Cape Bruny Lighthouse is now the second oldest lighthouse tower in Australia (1836).
Whilst visiting, soak up the gorgeous views of the southern ocean and the rugged sea cliffs that form the coastline of Cape Bruny.
Our lunch stop will be at one of two locations depending on the day.
Based on which location we choose to eat lunch, you will have the option of dining in at the Bruny Island Hotel or grabbing some food from the general store next door. There's plenty of space for you to sit down either at the benches or at the beach.
If you would prefer to bring your own lunch for the day, you are more than welcome to.
If the natural beauty of the island isn't enough, Bruny has a range of gourmet produce that is guaranteed to please every food lover.
We will be stopping at a variety of locations where you can meet the locals and sample their mouth watering produce on offer.
Potential tastings include: berries, cheese, chocolate, fresh oysters, wine, beer and cider.

The day tour to Bruny was A++ with our superstar driver/tour guide Gray! He was so entertaining, friendly and accommodating too! Gave us plenty of time to spend at each stop, and kindly agreed to fulfill our request to stop at the famous roadside refrigerator "bakery" where most of us picked up some gorgeous sourdough. The whole day was well planned out and sequenced to end with a sweet treat at Bruny Island Honey!!

Fantastic day exploring Bruny! Our driver Mark was a delightful chap and very knowledgeable. (Not to mention full of wit!). Loved both sides of the island but particularly the area on South Bruny near the lighthouse. You'd swear you were in Iceland! Totally recommended to do this tour!

We had an absolutely lovely time with Jodi! Another tour had fallen through and we booked last minute; very glad we did. She was knowledgeable, funny, and a delightful guide! Tour itself was also a great bite sized roundup of the wonders of Bruny, really packed a ton in for a day and had us home in time for dinner. Highly recommend!
