Review of Beachcomber Cruises, Picton

My husband I did three return trips on Beachcomber...

My husband I did three return trips on Beachcomber in the last few days. The first was the mail boat which was really fun and interesting. Our captain( Julian) made the commentary really informative and fun. He even spotted some bottle nosed dolphins and made a quick detour to see them. The Dolphins rode the bow of the boat for a bit which was delightful to watch. It was a lovely experience seeing the sounds from the water and watching as the various people and their dogs picked up their mail.
The second tripnwe went to an island with a bird sanctuary first for a Walkman then to ShipmCove where we walked to Furneaux Lodge. We had a young man driving who was very pleasant and pointed out a few birds and a blue penguin along the way. The final trip we did the?23 km hike tonPunga Cove and again had Julian at the wheel. He had us laughing once again and found some dusky dolphins en route. The water taxi was lovelyband visas, stable and comfortable, even offering tea and ciffee on the return trips. I highly recommend Beachcomber.
