lost down under Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 Hi AlliwsonW,My hubby frequently goes to Tazzy on business from Melbourne. He normally flies (abou 1 hour) but you are correct about the ferry. There is a ferry that leaves from St Kilda which is the famous seaside beach in Melbourne. I'm not sure what days it sails but I definitely know it leaves on Sunday nights full of business people. The last I saw the tv ad, the charge was $79 per person. There is probably a website too??

Mara Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 Here is the web link for the Spirit of Tasmania, which is the ferry between Tasmania and Melbourne. It sails every evening and in peak times has a day sailing as well. The trip by ferry takes 9 hours. Just remember the $79 tickets are just seating tickets, they are definitely not for recliners or cabins.http://www.spiritoftasmania.com.au/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
