Discover the spectacular Milford Sound with Southern Discoveries Boat Cruises and be captivated by some of the world’s most magnificent scenery. Milford Sound lies at the heart of the Fiordland National Park, a protected World Heritage area. Cruising the clear, still waters of the Fiord, you will encounter awe-inspiring sights such as Mitre Peak and the Stirling Falls.
Aboard our comfortable boats, your skipper will provide a full commentary on the natural history and wildlife of the Fiord. They will also take you underneath cascading waterfalls for an up-close look at the sheer cliffs rising above you – an experience not to be missed!
Milford Sounds newest cruise, the Encounter Nature Cruise, gets you up-close to the natural features of this majestic fiord in the most luxurious small boat in Milford Sound. The Encounter boat allows for uncrowded, unobstructed viewing of the Sound for your entire cruise.
Encounter Nature Guides will interact closely with you along the way so that you are left with fascinating facts about the history, geology, wildlife and natural flora found in Milford Sound.
Recently refitted, the Encounter boat is also the most comfortable and luxurious small boat in Milford Sound. The upper deck has covered seating and easy access to photo opportunities, with walkways around the entire boat.
