Bass Strait

335 km (Port Albert, VIC to Little Mussleroe Bay, TAS). You can choose a good weather window for smooth paddling, but the Strait can get very rough in strong weather.

Inverloch

  • Bunurong - Inverloch? 12.5 km video (exact start and end not clear from video? We're guessing this is going by the Bunurong Marine Park, with tiers of shore break to negotiate getting out and also coming in. This is possibly pretty much the same route as the Cape Patterson to Inverloch video shows below with a slightly more distant take out?)
