Flinders Island Photography Workshop
Immerse yourself in the extraordinary natural beauty of Flinders Island on this exclusive five-day photography workshop with acclaimed Tasmanian photographer Cameron Blake. Located just off the northeast coast of Tasmania in the Furneaux Island Group, Flinders Island is a largely undiscovered gem of ancient granite formations, pristine beaches, diverse wildlife, and some of the clearest and darkest skies in Australia. Suitable for photographers of all levels, from curious beginners to experienced professionals, this workshop combines daily masterclasses and hands-on tuition with immersive access to the island's most spectacular and photogenic locations. Cameron's expert guidance covers landscape, wildlife, bird, and astrophotography across a diverse range of environments and lighting conditions, ensuring every participant leaves with a portfolio of extraordinary images and the skills to continue capturing the natural world at its finest. Based at the welcoming Mountain Seas Lodge at the foot of Mount Strzelecki, this is five days of unhurried creative exploration on one of Tasmania's most beautiful and rarely visited islands.
Endemic Birds of Tasmania
Discover the extraordinary endemic birdlife of Tasmania on this immersive seven-day small group tour. Tasmania is one of Australia's most rewarding birding destinations, supporting 12 bird species found nowhere else on earth alongside a remarkable diversity of seabirds, waterbirds, raptors, and nocturnal wildlife across its varied island habitats. From the forested slopes of Kunanyi / Mount Wellington and the coastal heathlands of Lunawuni / Bruny Island to the car-free wilderness of Wukaluwikiwayna / Maria Island and the remote buttongrass moorlands of the South West, this tour visits the finest and most productive birding locations in the state with the depth and pace that serious wildlife enthusiasts deserve. The undisputed highlight is a scenic flight into Melaleuca, deep in the South West Wilderness, for a rare encounter with the critically endangered orange-bellied parrot. With all 12 Tasmanian endemics on the target list, this is Tasmanian birding at its most comprehensive and rewarding.
Tasmanian Highlights: Devils, Wombats and World Heritage
This five-day guided tour runs from Nipaluna/Hobart to Launceston, visiting Tasmania's most significant natural and historical sites with an expert naturalist guide. The tour begins with a visit to the Port Arthur Historic Site on the Turrakana/Tasman Peninsula (a UNESCO World Heritage Listed convict settlement), before heading to Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary for close encounters with Tasmanian devils, common wombats, spotted-tail quolls and eastern grey kangaroos. A short walk through Mount Field National Park leads to Russell Falls, beneath some of the world's tallest flowering trees. An overnight stay at Curringa Farm in Hamilton, a working sheep property in the Derwent Valley, is followed by a scenic drive through the Tasmanian Highlands and the Thousand Lakes plateau to Wulinantikala/Cradle Mountain. The Dove Lake Circuit (a 6km walk through buttongrass moorland and ancient pencil pine forest) is the centrepiece of Day 4, followed by a Joey Encounter at Devils@Cradle Sanctuary. The tour ends in Launceston at the Cataract Gorge. Activity level: Moderate. Maximum group size: 10.
