Description

The cliffs, caves and beaches in Tinderbox Marine Reserve, near Hobart, Tasmania, are a truly majestic, relaxing and idyllic sight, and I will guide you on this kayaking day tour around the best of them, taking in the peaceful and picturesque scenery around us whilst looking out for the gorgeous animals that inhabit the area.

Tinderbox Marine Reserve is located in the Australian island state of Tasmania at the mouth of the Derwent River, just 20km from the state capital of Hobart, and is an immensely popular natural getaway for many people owing to its proximity to the city and its abundance of amazing scenery.

We will meet in Hobart in the morning, and from there it is just a short drive to our starting point, where all gear and information will be dispensed.

It is then time to start paddling, and over the course of the morning we will be kayaking amongst lovely and exquisite bays, gazing at the massive Alum Cliffs, observing the magnificent Bruny Island, and getting out of our kayaks and feeling the sand beneath our toes on one of the many sensational beaches that dot the coastline.

There is an opportunity to taste and sample some of the fresh local Tasmanian produce for lunch on one of these beaches, and afterwards we spend the afternoon keeping an eye out for animals such as sea eagles, stingrays and seals, with very lucky people potentially bearing witness to dolphins or whales.

There will be ample time during our trip to stop and take in the spectacular views, and you will want to make sure you take plenty of photos!

This adventure will make you want to keep coming back to this great part of the world see more of the raw natural beauty of Tasmania.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
