Bruny Island, Lighthouse and Lunch Tour Itinerary

Once we’ve collected you from your accommodation, our journey to Kettering begins. From there, we catch the ferry straight to Bruny Island, passing breathtaking sea views along the way. Keep an eye out for seals and penguins during the crossing!

Upon reaching dry land, we’ll swiftly transport you to the lush surrounds of Mount Mangana Rainforest, where you can spot elusive native species like the white wallaby. Take in the stunning views from Truganini Lookout and the Neck before we head to Adventure Bay. Along the way, we’ll gather some oysters, cheese, and bread for a later picnic one of the island’s pristine beaches.

Following a scenic drive through rainforests, we arrive at South Bruny National Park, where you’ll take the southernmost lighthouse tour in Australia at the historic Cape Bruny Lighthouse Station. Throughout the tour, you’ll hear captivating stories from the lighthouse’s past and gain insight into its significant role in Australian history.
