As a cruising destination, it is hard to surpass Port Arthur on the south of Tasmania’s Tasman Peninsula.
It took a while to find favourable weather conditions but in February 2021 I finally crossed Storm Bay to visit Port Arthur’s and anchor in Stewarts Bay.
World Heritage listed Port Arthur Historic Site, the best preserved convict site in Australia. and among the most significant convict era sites worldwide, is a large outdoor site spanning over 100 acres with over 30 buildings and ruins to explore.
