Late Cruises from Southampton: How to Score the Best Discounts

If you’re looking for a last-minute adventure on the open seas, late cruises from Southampton can offer incredible opportunities to score great discounts. Whether you’re craving a romantic getaway or a family-friendly vacation, these late cruises provide the perfect solution. In this article, we’ll explore how you can secure the best discounts on late cruises departing from Southampton.

Be Flexible with Your Travel Dates

One of the key factors in finding discounted late cruises is flexibility with your travel dates. Cruise lines often offer significant discounts for departures within a short timeframe. By being open to various departure dates, you increase your chances of finding an unbeatable deal.

Additionally, consider traveling during off-peak seasons or weekdays when demand is lower. This way, you’ll have access to a wider range of discounted options and potentially save even more money.

Stay Updated on Last-Minute Deals

To stay ahead of the game and take advantage of late cruise discounts, it’s essential to stay updated on last-minute deals. Follow cruise lines’ social media accounts and subscribe to their newsletters to receive regular updates on special offers and promotions.

Moreover, utilize online travel agencies that specialize in last-minute bookings. These platforms often have exclusive deals and packages that can save you a significant amount of money. By staying informed about the latest offers, you can seize the opportunity when the perfect late cruise deal arises.

Consider Repositioning Cruises

Repositioning cruises are another excellent option for securing discounted late cruises from Southampton. These voyages occur when cruise ships need to relocate between different regions due to seasonal changes or itinerary adjustments. As a result, they often offer substantial discounts as an incentive for passengers to fill up cabins during these transitions.

When considering repositioning cruises, keep in mind that they may have longer itineraries or include additional ports of call. However, if you’re flexible with your travel plans and eager to explore new destinations, these cruises can provide an incredible value for money.

Contact Travel Agents and Cruise Specialists

Don’t underestimate the power of contacting travel agents and cruise specialists when searching for late cruises from Southampton. These professionals have access to exclusive deals and can offer personalized recommendations based on your preferences and budget.

Travel agents can often negotiate lower prices or secure additional perks such as onboard credits or cabin upgrades. Their expertise in the industry can help you navigate through various options and find the best late cruise deal tailored to your needs.

In conclusion, late cruises from Southampton are a fantastic way to embark on a spontaneous adventure without breaking the bank. By being flexible with your travel dates, staying updated on last-minute deals, considering repositioning cruises, and reaching out to travel agents or cruise specialists, you can score the best discounts available. So pack your bags and get ready for an unforgettable journey on the high seas.

An Award-Winning 3 Hour Wilderness Cruise

Tasman island cruises provides unforgettable three hour wilderness cruises along the spectacular coastline between port arthur and eaglehawk neck in southern tasmania..

The cruise travels beneath the highest vertical sea cliffs in the Southern Hemisphere at Cape Pillar. Guests explore waterfalls, rock formations, archways and deep-sea caves.

The coastline is part of the Tasman National Park. It is home to a variety of wildlife including hundreds of seals, migrating whales and abundant sea birds in their thousands.

At any time of year you're likely to see the feeding frenzy of diving gannets, albatross and sea eagles wheeling on the wind, cliff-nesting cormorants and peregrine falcons, or a pod of playful dolphins surfing the bow wave of the boat.

The custom built yellow boats are ideal for viewing the spectacular coastline and wildlife of the Tasman Peninsula. Each vessel holds a maximum of 43 guests. Covered open-air tiered seating means an excellent all-round view and connection with the environment. The boats have been created for these journeys and they are gentle on the environment due to their fuel efficiency and low emission operation.

More information.

Let us help you to make the most of your visit to the Tasman Peninsula.

Do I Need to Book?

We recommended booking a few days ahead as our boats are often full and you may be disappointed if you chance to just turn up on the day. We are flexible with bookings so it is not a problem if you decide to change to another day or cancel, whatever the reason. No fee is charged for cancellations before the cruise date (so long as you contact us).

What about the weather?

Our boats are designed to suit the coastline along which we travel and we will certainly make the most of any weather conditions. Our bookings are fully flexible so if you decide the weather on the day is not for you, you can give us a call and we can change your reservation to a different day. Our staff are upfront and honest about the weather and you are welcome to contact us a day or two ahead to get an honest indication of the forecasted weather. Of course, in Tasmania the weather can at times be a little surprising and so a forecast is exactly that, a forecast!

What about sea sickness?

Being in open ocean, sea sickness can be an issue for a small number of people. We have had 13 years experience in dealing with this and have developed some very effective techniques to minimise the chance of sea sickness occurring.

We offer all-natural Travel Calm Ginger tablets to everyone when they step onboard. This product has proven extremely effective in preventing sea sickness in most people. Our staff can also suggest a number of things to further assist in minimising the chances of any sea sickness symptoms:

• Selecting a seat in the back third of the boat (there is a lot less movement up the back of the boat)
• Keeping your body temperature on the cooler side
• If you wear glasses or sunglasses keep the lenses clean at all times
• Avoid looking through cameras, binoculars etc
• Stay away from acidic foods before the cruise such as Orange Juice and coffee

We do emphasise that communication is the key - if you have any concerns please let our staff know.

What do I need to wear?

It is important that you are adequately dressed because it is cold on the boats, even in summer. Warm jackets gloves, scarves & beanies are a good idea. We provide wet weather jackets which go over the top of your clothing, but we encourage you to bring a few warm layers of your own.

Can you cater for special dietary needs?

We use local cafes and restaurants for meals on our Full Day Tours. These venues are able to cater for most dietary requirements. Please mention any special requests to our staff when booking.

Can I do the cruise and Port Arthur Historic Site on the same day?

Yes, our Booking Centre is right next door to the Port Arthur Historic Site. Both can be done in the same day.

Are young children OK?

Children of all ages are welcome aboard our boats and we take many children along on our cruises. As parents you are probably the best judge as to how your children will cope with being out on the water for 3 hours, but we have found that the majority of children enjoy the experience and love seeing the amazing wildlife, huge cliffs and caves along the Bruny coastline.

Is the cruise OK while pregnant?

For the majority of days the cruise is quite suitable for pregnant women and we have had lots do our trip. Our boats are custom built for the coastline that we cruise along. They are able to cut through chop and therefore we can avoid the bumping of waves that some boats experience. It is a good idea to take into account the weather conditions on the day of the cruise as this will effect comfort levels for someone who is heavily pregnant. You can contact us a day or two ahead to get a weather report for the day of your cruise and we are happy to move or cancel bookings if it is not looking suitable for you.

Pennicott Wilderness Journeys acknowledges and pays respect to the past, present and future Traditional Custodians and Elders of this nation and the continuation of cultural, spiritual and educational practices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
