Port Davey Escape - 4 Nights
<p>This 4-night expedition cruise takes you deep into the pristine coastal wilderness of Tasmania’s remote south west. This Wilderness World Heritage-listed area is inaccessible by road and only experienced by a privileged few each year.</p>
<p>Expeditions are based from a ‘floating boutique hotel’, the Odalisque, a brand-new custom-built vessel with just six cabins. Guests are entertained by an all-star crew, including skipper, host, chef & guide.</p>
<p>Our specialist chefs (borrowed from Hobart’s top restaurants) provide top-notch Tasmanian fare, all paired with fine Tasmanian wine. Our hand-picked expert guides (with years of experience in the area) double as personal walking encyclopaedias.</p>
<p>Daily shore excursions, tailored to your interests, will see you totally immersed in the wilderness. It’s all about “getting your feet wet” (as skipper & founder Pieter van der Woude regularly says). During your unforgettable time with us, you’ll explore narrow winding waterways lined with Huon pine, hike to mountain-top vantage points where it feels like you can see over the edge of the world, picnic on remote beaches and soak up the serene views from the Odalisque’s deck as you cruise past sea caves, blowholes and rocky islets. </p>

Port Davey Escape - 4 Nights itinerary:
show reverse itinerary
Days 1 - 5 EXPLORE A REMOTE AND SPECTACULAR HARBOUR AT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD
This 4-night expedition cruise takes you deep into the pristine coastal wilderness of Tasmania’s remote south west. This Wilderness World Heritage-listed area is inaccessible by road and only experienced by a privileged few each year. Expeditions are based from a ‘floating boutique hotel’, the Odalisque, a brand-new custom-built vessel with just six cabins. Guests are entertained by an all-star crew, including skipper, host, chef & guide. Our specialist chefs (borrowed from Hobart’s top restaurants) provide top-notch Tasmanian fare, all paired with fine Tasmanian wine. Our hand-picked expert guides (with years of experience in the area) double as personal walking encyclopaedias. Daily shore excursions, tailored to your interests, will see you totally immersed in the wilderness. It’s all about “getting your feet wet” (as skipper & founder Pieter van der Woude regularly says). During your unforgettable time with us, you’ll explore narrow winding waterways lined with Huon pine, hike to mountain-top vantage points where it feels like you can see over the edge of the world, picnic on remote beaches and soak up the serene views from the Odalisque’s deck as you cruise past sea caves, blowholes and rocky islets.

Odalisque III
Vessel Type: Catamaran
Length: 24 metres
Passenger Capacity: 12
Built: 2022
Brand-New Expedition Catamaran
Purpose-built in 2022 for an intimate wilderness experience in Tasmanian waters, the vessel houses just 12 guests in its six stylish cabins. Aboard there are two spacious guest lounges, three outdoor viewing decks and an open bridge – all with magnificent water aspects. Go beyond your comfort zone without giving up your creature comforts, on Odalisque III.
Tender Vessels
Daily tender excursions are made aboard our two tenders – 15ft aluminum dinghies which we affectionately call ‘tinnies’. These twin tinnies are versatile, safe and fast vessels. They’re well suited to handling the weather conditions of Tasmanian waters, which can change quickly, and have comfortable, stable seating. These tenders are ideal for exploring rocky inlets and sea caves, due to their maneuverability and easy handling.
Our tinnies were built to handle the best (and worst) of Tasmania’s wind, rain and waves. So that our guests too can head out whatever the weather, On Board provides weatherproof rain ponchos for all tender excursions.
