What the day feels like

What the Explorers Package feels like

The pace is deliberately slow: arrive in Devonport on Friday morning, be chauffeured to the secluded Bakers Beach retreat, and spend two nights enveloped in off‑grid comforts — mornings and afternoons spent on guided coastal tracks or optional independent visits to nearby Narawntapu National Park, evenings around hearty Tasmanian meals and a nocturnal wildlife walk.
