Spirit of Tasmania - Devonport - General Tips & Advice Reviews

There are two ways on how to get to Tasmania. First option is to take the plane or to take the ship from Melbourne to Devonport Australia.

It takes about half a day to get to Tasmania. One of the crew told me that it was a party ship years ago, people went to Tasmania and took the ship back. But since faster ships are used, people stopped partying. Now it’s quite boring the whole night and if you don’t have cabin or a place to sleep its not going to be relaxing.

Its nice to leave Port Philip with this huge ship, but afterwarts nothing happens, nothing to see until you reach Tasmania.

The fares are quite expensive if you are travelling with your car it might be cheaper when you book a flight to Tasmania and rent a car there.
