Experiences
Unique and tailored just for you.
Daily signature experiences are included with your stay. On any given day, they can be as action-packed, culinary, or contemplative as you wish. And if the weather should affect plans, there are always other experiences that can be arranged.
Freycinet walks and hikes
Freycinet is a beautiful peninsula with many trails, so why not put on your walking shoes and experience it with a private guide?
On water marine discovery
Our custom-designed boat with a private skipper is available for discovering the bays, beaches and marine environment of the area.
An oyster odyssey
There is no purer expression of freshness than wading out to oyster beds and sampling them directly from the sea. They can be made more delicious by pairing them with local bubbles.
Wine tour and tasting
Our sommelier will take you through the wines of a local, highly awarded vineyard so you can get an understanding of what our unique terroir imparts on the local wines.
Whisky tour and tasting
Visit our preferred distillery, where you take a guided tour and then taste from casks that are reserved for Picnic Island guests.
Paddle out
Our bays and open water are perfect for kayaking, and while enjoying the scenery, our guide will share knowledge about wildlife and the history of the area.
Private Yoga
While you may have your own yoga practice, why not expand it with private, on-island classes by a professional yoga instructor?
Cycling tours
Take a guided tour and see the Freycinet Peninsula and beyond, from the saddle. Explore backroads and paths, and all at the pace you prefer.
Beach exploring
Our neighbouring beaches are beautifully empty, and the water is exhilaratingly fresh. Walking and swimming here are life’s simple pleasures.
"What a perfect place to disconnect and re-connect to all of the beautiful things this world has to offer."
Additional experiences.
While not included, our additional enriching experiences are available to guests and can be organised on your behalf and added to your itinerary. To do this, simply contact our concierge to discuss what you'd like.
Guided Meditation
Re-connect with your deeper self through a personal guided meditation session to the sound of the sea.
On Island Massage
A massage is often essential to help unwind. Our massage therapist is trained in a range of therapies and will come to the island and set up outside if the weather permits.
Helicopter Tours
This is an opportunity to get your bearings by getting up and above the landscape and seeing the spectacular coastline from the air.
Wine Masterclass
Challenge your palate and enrich your knowledge with a sommelier-guided masterclass through some of the region’s most lauded wines.
Sound Bath
Private sound bath and breath practices can be brought to the island in sessions designed to guide you into deep rest, quiet your mind, and return you to yourself while immersed in nature.
Air Transfers
Whether it is to and from the airport or to restaurants, hotels or remote parts of Tasmania, flying by seaplane or helicopter can be arranged.
Celebrity Chefs
For that special birthday, anniversary, honeymoon or just for the fun of it. Surprise your guests with a bespoke five-course meal prepared by a celebrity guest chef from our circle of connections. It promises a journey for the senses guided by the stories and passion of a world-renowned culinary expert.
