Peppermint Bay Hotel

Book the boat

Arrive the way the harbour intended

Landmark waterfront hotel and dining room at Woodbridge on the D'Entrecasteaux Channel, with its own deep-water jetty.

Peppermint Bay sits above its own jetty at Woodbridge, an hour south of Hobart by water, looking across the D'Entrecasteaux Channel to Bruny Island. The dining room and bar built their reputation on Channel produce — Bruny oysters, local salmon, Huon Valley fruit and Tasmanian wine — and the venue was designed from the start for guests who arrive by boat. It remains the most natural arrive-by-water lunch in southern Tasmania.

Water taxis to Peppermint Bay Hotel — questions

Can I get a water taxi to Peppermint Bay Hotel?

Yes. Water Taxis Australia runs licensed water taxis to Peppermint Bay Jetty, Woodbridge TAS, the closest public landing to Peppermint Bay Hotel in Woodbridge. Enter your pickup wharf, choose a time and you'll see a live all-inclusive fare per boat before you book.

How much does a water taxi to Peppermint Bay Hotel cost?

Fares are priced per boat, not per person, and depend on your pickup wharf, the time of day and how many passengers you have. The live fare shown in the booking engine on this page is the fare you pay — it already includes the licensed skipper, fuel, GST and platform fees.

When is my card charged?

We don't charge your card when you book. Your card is only verified — your bank may show a temporary zero-dollar check, which is not a payment. The fare is charged only once a water taxi operator or skipper accepts your job (or three days before pickup, whichever comes first). If no one accepts, you are never charged. If you're using a debit card, keep the funds available so the fare can be charged when a skipper accepts.

Where does the boat drop us off at Peppermint Bay Hotel?

Berth at the Peppermint Bay jetty — the dining room is directly above it. Landing is by arrangement with the venue; allow around one hour each way from the Hobart waterfront.

Do you book the table as well?

Yes — we can request it for you. Send us your time and party size and we'll come back to you by text and email with the answer: confirmed, a different time offered, or fully booked. Nothing is charged while you wait, and you only finish the water taxi booking once the table is sorted. You're welcome to book the table yourself instead and just use us for the boat.
