Challenge and adventure, remote and magnificent landscapes, expert leadership – join us on an adventure exploring the wilderness waterways of Bathurst Harbour and Port Davey in southwest Tasmania, Australia’s island state, with a paddle in your hand.
Southwest Tasmania has been named "the most magnificent paddling destination in Australia" by Australian Geographic Outdoor Magazine and "one of the world's 10 epic sea kayak paddles" by Lonely Planet.
This area offers a combination of sheltered wilderness harbours, rugged ocean coastlines, remote islands and wild rivers. There are no roads and no settlements. We reach spectacular destinations in the best possible way – by water, at a paddling pace.
Whether you’re a first-timer or you’ve had your fair share of kayaking experiences, rest assured that Roaring 40ºs experienced guides know the Tasmanian wilderness better than anyone. We’ll guide you through sheltered wilderness harbours, ocean coastlines, remote harbours, and so much more.
Choose from our 8-day or 4-day sea kayak experience or 7-day all-inclusive trip package.
