How I Explored Tasmania's Hidden Southern Coast by Catamaran
Briefly

Port Davey, located in southwestern Tasmania, is a vast inlet of the Southern Ocean renowned for its rugged beauty. Local guide Pete Marmion humorously measures body of water sizes, noting Port Davey's impressive scale compared to Sydney Harbour. The area features dark waters framed by ancient mountains, enriching the visitor experience. The Odalisque III, a luxurious catamaran, provides unique access to this remote region, which is mainly accessible through extensive camping or sailing. The ideal travel period spans from December to May, allowing for enjoyable exploration amid the wilderness of the UNESCO World Heritage Area.
It goes milliliters, liters, Olympic pools, and then Sydney Harbours. Port Davey is three times the size of Sydney Harbour.
Port Davey's dark, tannin-stained waters lie at the feet of ancient quartzite mountains that look as if they've been squished, layered, and stretched toward the horizon.
Odalisque III, a shiny 78-foot catamaran from On Board Tasmanian Expedition Cruises, is offering unrivaled access to this beautiful and rugged corner of Australia's deepest south.
Sailings run from December to May, during which time the region's unpredictable weather abates for long enough to allow for comfortable exploration.
