Depart at 09.00 and will sail down the spectacular Derwent River through the
D'Entrecastreaux Channel. On rounding South West Cape, we will enter the South
West
Wilderness area by the Breaksea Islands and the extensive waterway of Port
Bathurst
Harbour. During our time here we will have expeditions ashore to Mt. Misery,
Mt. Rugby,
Melaleucca and boat journeys up the numerous rivers including the Davey River
which flow
into this area.
There will be opportunities to familiarise ones self with the flora and fauna

A local guide will give lectures on this area's unique features, history and
wildlife.
On our return voyage via the South Coast, we hope to make landfall at Maatsuker
Island,
to visit the most southern lighthouse in Australia and view the Albatross
colony on
Pedro Blanca. We should have numereous sightings of seabirds, seals, dolphins
and
perhaps whales.
