Huon River Cruise:
Calm water cruise aboard the historic Kerrawyn
Calm water cruise on the Huon River departing and returning to Franklin or Cygnet
Join us on a leisurely 90 minute cruise, a 5 hour adventure or a 3 day journey. Depending on the wind, sail one way, motor the other. This is not a jet boat ride for thrill seekers. It is a tranquil, relaxing, introduction to the historic and natural values of the Huon Estuary, on an historic ocean going sailing vessel.
90 minute or 5 hour sail/motor cruise |
Join us on board a classic wooden sailing vessel, where you can enjoy the scenery of the Huon River and hear the story of Kerrawyn's restoration. Become a part of the experience as you hoist sail or simply sit back and enjoy the timeless feeling and the beauty of the Huon Valley.
Cruises depart most days from Franklin or Cygnet Marinas on selected days only. Plan ahead to match Kerrawyn's schedule with your holiday dates. To book call us from 9am to 7pm, 7 days on 0427 648465 |
