Jervis Bay Passage

Towering cliffs, sea caves, ancient rock formations and world-famous white sandy beaches, all in one breathtaking loop of the bay.

2.5 hoursMid-November to mid-May
The bay's greatest hits

Every highlight, one unforgettable loop

Welcome aboard one of Jervis Bay’s most breathtaking cruises. The Jervis Bay Passage showcases the bay’s towering cliffs, sea caves, ancient rock formations and world-famous white sandy beaches.

Feel the fresh sea breeze as we cruise past Point Perpendicular Lighthouse and the famous shores of Hyams Beach, exploring hidden coves and pristine coastline while our crew shares stories and local history along the way.

Keep your camera ready. Dolphins often join the journey, leaping alongside in crystal-clear water, and you may also spot seals, sea eagles, turtles and seabirds.
