Tasmania Road Trip Part 1 - The Tasman Peninsula

The first stop on our Tasmania road trip is the stunning Tasman Peninsula in Tasmanias South East.
Officially our holiday kicked off a day earlier. We stayed the night at the Stamford Sydney airport because with travel ramping back up, we heard the airport would be chaos (it was) and we had a super early flight so didn't want to risk the traffic (absolutely 10/10 life decision).
We landed in Hobart to the MOST GLORIOUS DAY! We picked up the car at Hobart Airport and first stop was some groceries because, whats a road trip without snacks. We headed to Eaglehawk Neck lookout and the Remarkable Cave to soak up some views while we pondered if we were going to take on a big hike.......... and of course, its us so we opted to start a quite substantial hike at nearly 1pm to Cape Raoul. This 14km hike is a stunner! Incredible views over Shipstern Bluff (one of Australias most famous surf breaks), sheer sea cliffs, ever changing scenery, absolutely beautiful. We did however underestimate how much water we would need and forgot the chap stick so there was a lot of complaining on the up hill section/ basically the whole way to the car.
We had a 2 man chip and dip party down at a beautiful beach to congratulate ourselves on another great hike and once we had eaten enough guac to feed an army, we headed off to check into our accommodation at the Fox and Hound. We had low hopes for this accommodation (it was pretty cheap) but it was cute and cozy (and a little odd) and the view out our window was stunning.
The next morning we woke up to ANOTHER perfect day, we popped down to Stuarts Bay to eat our breakfast with a side of coffee of course then headed back to Maingon Bay lookout (where we were the day before) to get a unique perspective on where we had hiked. After we chatted at the lookout for a while reminiscing about our cape Raoul hike, we headed off to our next adventure!
We booked a 3h boat trip with Pennicott Wilderness Tours to experience the sheer sea cliffs and abundant wildlife of the Tasman Peninsula from the water. We loaded up on ginger tablets, slathered ourselves in SPF, donned our bright red spray jackets and headed off. This trip did not disappoint, we could not stop smiling the whole time and best thing is, we didn't get sea sick despite how incredibly bumpy it was out there. we got to explore sea caves, get up close to Tasman Island, bask in the beauty of the incredible sea cliffs AND we saw SO MUCH WILDLIFE! Dolphins, seals, birds, blue fin tuna.... the list goes on.
We hopped straight off the boat and into the car to head north and before we knew it, the day had gotten away from us so we decided it was time to open a cheeky bottle of Tassie Sparkling that we picked up on our way from Devils corner and kick back.
We cant wait to share part 2 with you!

Nice video. Tasmania..I’m coming

[@Vinceventuring]

You’ll love it! Thank you for watching ❤️

[@henrykhosasih8781]

Woah the boat trip looks amazing! I'm considering to take a boat trip with Pennicott Wilderness Tours, and I see that there are two options: Tasman Island and Bruny Island. I was wondering if you had done a research on the difference between the two?

[@Vinceventuring]

Mostly the scenery and wildlife you’ll see, this one left from bear port Arthur. Highly recommend the Tasman island one, spectacular tour

[@henrykhosasih8781]

@@Vinceventuring Awesome! Can't wait for the trip

[@janinevincent4184]

That looked amazing. I loved every minute of it 💕. So looking forward to Part 2.

[@Vinceventuring]

Aww thank you. Can’t wait to share the rest of this trip, it was just magic the whole time

[@markzphotoscom]

Tasmania is a beautiful place to visit. It was the first place I went to with a plane. Some fantastic scenery. Every time I see a video like this I start thinking I need to return for another visit.

[@Vinceventuring]

You absolutely should go back. We just got home and want to go back already. It’s a photographers dream 😍 thanks so much for watching ❤️

[@GrabLifeByTheGourlays]

Nicely done guys, looks amazing!!🤙🏽

[@Vinceventuring]

Thanks so much for the like and comment, this trip was incredible, can’t wait to share the rest ❤️❤️

[@ericverdouw.8325]

Being a Tasmanian I can see you certainly fitted a lot in on those first 2 days. Blue skies certainly add to those special moments. We’ll done.

[@Vinceventuring]

Thanks so much. Tasmania is gorgeous but when you get that perfect weather too there’s nothing worse than sitting around inside. It was jam packed but just incredible. Thank you for watching ❤️

[@gavinhartmedia]

Beautiful quality video, a pleasure to watch. I left my heart in Tassie. I lived there for about a decade in the 80's to 90's, so some nostalgia stirred as I watched.

[@Vinceventuring]

Aww this makes me so happy to read. I am so glad you enjoyed watching and it brought back some happy memories ❤️

Awesome guys, how good was the weather. Looking forward to pt2 🤠👍👍

[@Vinceventuring]

Thanks for watching Shad, you’re a legend. We could not have had better weather the whole trip. We reckon it’s cause for once we weren’t camping 😂😂

[@shaddonaghue]

@@Vinceventuring haha probably, if you camped it would have snowed 😂😂
