Connection to Country

Discover Saffire's private apiary with horticulturalist Rob ‘The Beeman’ Barker for an immersive experience among hives that house up to 60,000 bees. Watch as they make their golden honey. With protective full-body suiting, it's a rare privilege to experience, at its source.

Across still lakes and open ranges, this experience invites a deeper connection to Tasmania’s outdoors. Guided dry fly fishing on pristine lakes is followed by clay target shooting, where expert guidance and world-class hatches shape a seamless, rewarding day.

This walking experience with views of Freycinet National Park loops around the automated lighthouse at Cape Tourville. Much of the walk is on a raised boardwalk, taking you occasionally to the cliff edge, offering amazing views of the Hazards, Wineglass Bay and The Nuggets.

Step into the heart of a working oyster farm, nestled on the pristine, calm waters of Coles Bay. Capture the memories as you don waders and take a guided tour of seabed harvesting, cultivation and tasting. Sample oysters, freshly raised and shucked directly from the lease.

Uncover the balance of flavour, technique and creativity behind a beautifully composed cocktail in the Saffire Lounge. Guided by our team, guests are invited to explore the process behind each pour – transforming curiosity into craft with ease and enjoyment. (18+ only experience)

Witness one of Tasmania’s most elusive creatures in a setting few will ever experience. Within Saffire’s one-hectare sanctuary, endangered Tasmanian devils – solitary, rarely seen in the wild – are given a protected home as part of an active conservation and breeding program.

Whether you have a deep appreciation for whisky or just beginning to explore Tasmania’s distilling scene, a visit to Waubs Harbour Distillery is a natural addition to your Saffire stay. Single malts crafted in Bicheno and matured just metres from the ocean. (18+ experience)

Discover the best of the Freycinet Peninsula onboard our Wildlife & Wilderness Cruise. This half-day experience on Saffire Freycinet’s private vessel explores the Park’s coastline with access to remote locations, from Wineglass Bay to Schouten Island and its resident fur seals.

The Wineglass Bay Lookout Walk reveals one of Australia’s most recognisable views – an elegant sweep of white sand and luminous blue water. The track rises through coastal bushland, each step revealing more, until the full curve of the bay comes into view.

See Tasmania from a different perspective as coastline, mountains and islands unfold beneath you. Working with Freycinet Air Tasmania, Saffire can arrange your aerial exploration of Wineglass Bay, the Hazards and the Freycinet Peninsula, or venture further afield to Maria Island
