Escape to Freycinet

Dive world renowned locations such as Wineglass Bay and unique reef systems below the granite mountains of Freycinet, the Hazards. Spend time exploring Tasmania’s best kept dive secret Schouten Island and the Ile Des Phoques seal colony. A truly remote setting only 30 minutes travel by boat from Coles Bay. Schouten Island and the Freycinet Peninsular are pure Tasmanian wilderness.

Coles Bay is renowned worldwide for its breathtaking scenery, commitment to tourism, pristine clean and clear waters and what’s more, it is also home to Tasmania’s best kept dive secret. The remote locations on the outside of Schouten Island and Wine Glass Bay are home to some of the best dive sites in Tasmania, and for a long time have been difficult for many to get to and explore, until now. Island Ocean Charters is proud to provide access to these exquisite locations from the luxury conveniences found in Coles Bay. With our custom built 8m dive vessel we provide comfortable private day charters to these locations, where you will be the only divers in the water, and feel a million miles from nowhere. Experience diving with seals, explore caverns and swim throughs, deep water reefs, giant sponge gardens, kelp forests and much more!
