Bruny Island Ferry
Sealink Bruny Island owns and operates two high-speed modern catamaran-style aluminium vehicular ferries that provide scheduled services to Bruny Island.
Our fleet is proudly Tasmanian born and bred, constructed locally in Hobart by Richardson Divine Marine, by Tasmanians for Tasmania. The ferries offer the convenience of transporting a variety of vehicles to the island, as well as the air-conditioned comfort to take in some of the best views that the Island has to offer.
Both ferries feature air-conditioned passenger cabins with tabled seating, an outdoor viewing deck, and bathrooms for passenger convenience.
The ferry takes 20 minutes to cross over to the island, where your adventure begins.

Bruny Island is only a short ferry ride away from the coastal town of Kettering, yet it seems a world apart. Owing to its dramatic landscapes, incredible produce and unparalleled views, Bruny Island is a bucket list destination in Australia.
The island has some amazing walking trails that take you up close to the Island’s stunning landscapes and local wildlife. Pack your backpack and water bottle and get trekking on some of their short and easy walks like the Truganini lookout, Alonnah-Sheepwash Bay track or the Cape Bruny Lighthouse.
Wildlife Encounters for Curious Minds
Like much of Tasmania, Bruny Island is blessed with incredible nature and wildlife experiences, including spotting the famed albino Bennett’s wallabies. These unique wallabies is special because of their white fur, pink eyes, claws and nose. Your best bet to spot them in the wild would be at Adventure Bay.
Apart from the white wallabies, you’ll also spot marine wildlife such as seals, dolphins, whales, and seabirds. Bruny Island’s many nature parks, trails and gardens are enough to keep you busy over a few days.
