From November to March yearly, watch mutton birds return to the islands of the Furneax Group. Also known as short-tailed shearwaters, millions of these birds return from the Northern Hemisphere to nest and raise their young. This tour takes you on 'Strait Lady,' a 10-metre luxury cruiser, out among the off-shore islands. From here, you will have the perfect view of mutton birds coming in. Thousands will return to their nests at dusk with food they have gathered to feed their young.

Discover the beauty of Flinders Island on a three-day tour capturing the island's greatest highlights. Self-contained cottage accommodation or 4.5 star Mountain Seas hosted and catered accommodation. Your tour includes accommodation, continental breakfast, lunch, two full-day four-wheel drive tours, entry into the museum and national park and airport pick-up and delivery. The tour is designed to show you the best of Flinders Island in a short period of time. It is a chance to see some of the remote and lovely areas that visitors rarely see. You will explore secluded coves and rugged coastlines, travel to high lookouts and through the heart of the central mountain range. Learn about the island's history at the Museum at Emita, and historic Wybalenna, where Augustus Robinson brought some of the last remaining Tasmanian Aborigines.

Experience the most beautiful corners of Flinders Island with a variety of coastal trails taking you to pristine and deserted beaches and two of the most majestic mountains on the island - Mt Strzelecki and Mt Killiecrankie. Whilst staying in a beautiful retreat in one of Tasmania's wild and untamed places, enjoy delicious and nutritional breakfasts each morning and freshly baked biscuits and cakes for morning and afternoon tea plus wonderful picnic lunches and gourmet dinners. You can also join Wendy each evening for a cooking demonstration using the fresh seasonal produce from her garden.
