          Itinerary

          Freycinet Aqua Express provides a one-way or return water taxi service to Hazards Beach multiple times daily. We also provide a daily service to Cooks Beach and Schouten Island.

          Freycinet National Park is a place of dramatic beauty, where the rugged granite coastline meets turquoise waters and pristine white sand beaches. The iconic Wineglass Bay (regularly voted as one of the world's top ten beaches) is recognised globally for its curvaceous white beach with the Hazards mountain range providing a breathtaking backdrop.

          Cooks Beach - Bushwalker Camping
          Cooks Beach is a popular camping spot for bushwalkers undertaking the Freycinet Peninsula Circuit walk. We provide a daily transfer service for bushwalkers travelling to/from Cooks Beach.

          Here you can enjoy a peaceful and remote camping experience with only a small number of campsites. It is not possible to reserve a camp site, and there's no guarantees a spot will be available when you arrive. There are toilets at Cooks Beach but otherwise you must be fully self-sufficient and prepared for camping in a remote environment.

          For more information please view the Frecyinet overnight walker camping page of the Parks & Wildlife Service website.

          There may be times when our boat may not be able to access Cooks Beach and in this case, you will need to be prepared to walk out to Hazards Beach.
