Why Hobart Lunch Cruises Are a Must-Try in Tasmania

If you’re on a Hobart lunch cruise, expect menus that showcase the very essence of Tasmanian cuisine, featuring the finest local flavours! From the freshest seafood (they literally catch it before your eyes!) to gourmet dishes, there is plenty to satisfy everyone’s palate. Most cruises also boast a licensed bar on board, stocked with alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks to complement your dining experience.

Some of the lunch cruises also venture out to nearby landmarks like Bruny Island or Peppermint Bay! The route to these attractions is plush with panoramic ocean views! The Tasman waters are also home to an array of aquatic animals and you just might catch sight of a pod of playful dolphins, migrating whales and sunbathing seals. Make sure your camera or phone is fully charged as you’ll be clicking a lot of photos!

A Gourmet Adventure on Water

A popular and highly sought-after cruise is the Seafood Seduction Experience, where the freshest local seafood is caught and cooked right on board; it’s literally Deep to Dish!. It is a hands-on culinary adventure, tasting Tasmanian oysters, scallops, mussels, and sashimi as they’re prepared before their eyes. A special treat is the Tasmanian rock lobster, a delicacy that stands in the centre of this food-oriented experience. It’s a true celebration of Tasmania’s rich seafood heritage and one you should not miss out on if visiting Tasmania!

Enjoy all of these and more from the comfort of a cruise! So what are you waiting for? Book your next meal on a Hobart Lunch Cruise!
