Take command in our exciting new ship simulator fully relaunched in late 2024 —steer down the Mersey and test your skills on the wild Bass Strait! Browse unique Tasmanian gifts in our shop, then relax with a coastal-inspired menu and the best coffee in town at our café. Adventure, history, and hospitality await—welcome aboard!
