About this tour
Skip the gruelling inland trek and reach Wineglass Bay by boat. Freycinet Aqua Express whisks you from Coles Bay across pristine coastal waters to Hazards Beach, then a gentle 30-minute walk delivers you to Tasmania's most photographed crescent of white sand. Choose between a half-day jaunt (4 hours) or full-day option (7 hours) to soak up the turquoise waters and granite peaks without the exhaustion.
Highlights

- Straightforward 30-minute walk to Wineglass Bay

- Return coastal cruise to Coles Bay
- Flexible half-day or full-day schedules
What to expect
You'll board at Coles Bay either mid-morning or early morning, depending on your option. The 30-minute boat ride hugs the coast before dropping you at Hazards Beach. From there, a straightforward bush track climbs gently to Wineglass Bay—no scrambling, no exposed sections. Once you arrive, the beach is yours. Swim, doze on the sand, eat your packed lunch with a view. The boat collects you at a set time, so keep an eye on the clock and start your walk back with a buffer. The return voyage mirrors the arrival, giving you more coastal scenery.
Good to know
Bring your own food and water—nothing is provided. Pack swimwear, sunscreen, and a hat. The track is manageable for most fitness levels but wear proper shoes. Strollers work on the beach but not the track. Toilets are aboard the boat, not at Hazards Beach.
