Tasman Holiday Parks - St Helens

Poppa's Boat Hire is a small family business which is owned and operated by father and son Graeme and Brayden Popowski. Both have a passion for fishing and spend almost every spare minute getting to the sunny East Coast, which is regarded as the fishing capital of Tasmania. They thought why not give people the same opportunity to get out there and catch some of the many species of fish and experience what the East Coast of Tasmania has to offer. ​At Poppa's Boat Hire we offer different services based on our customer's needs, whether it be catching some of the many species of fish in George's Bay, exploring the famous Scamander River looking for those beautiful hard fighting Bream, or just a morning or afternoon adventure around the waters of the East Coast of Tasmania.

Secret River Tours provides a personalized service for the adventurous traveler looking for a unique experience. Secret River Tours features luxury class, pedal-powered kayaks suitable for all ages and abilities. Secret River Tours will also take you to the closely guarded "secret " Gem fields of North East Tasmania hunting for Sapphire, Zircons, Topaz, Smokey Quarts Crystals and many other treasures.

Scamander River is a kayakers dream. The river snakes its way inland from the beachside town of Scamander, through a mix of classic Tasmanian farmland and eucalypt forest covered hills, which plunge almost vertical into deep clear water. Scamander River is famous for its large population of various fish species, especially the Southern Black Bream which spawn here in huge numbers through spring. The spectacular scenery and the winding nature of this river is constantly inviting you to see what is around the next corner.
