Huon River Jet Boats

Huon River Jet Boats offer Australia's only whitewater jet boating experience with high-speed jet boat tours on the Huon River, Southern Tasmania. Huon River Jet Boats is based in Huonville, 35-minute drive southwest of Hobart (48 km) in the Huon Valley. Huon River Jet Boats offers an exhilarating ride along 12 km of the Huon River. This 35-minute experience combines beautiful scenery with the thrill of white water. You'll speed through rapids and feel the excitement of 360-degree spins and breathtaking turns. You'll also experience the contrast of drifting along the tranquil waters of the river, seeing perfect reflections of riverside forests. Your skilled skipper and guide will reveal the history of the Huon River and Valley and, back on shore, you can sit down to a tasty meal made with local produce in the Boatshed Café, overlooking the river. Tours leave regularly each day (except Christmas Day) from our base on The Esplanade, Huonville. The ride is suitable for all ages. In cooler months wear warm clothing and a waterproof jacket, bring your camera and sunglasses and enjoy the fun. Lifejackets and waterproof ponchos are supplied. Refreshments and light meals are available at the Boat Shed Cafe.
