Spirit of Tasmania fares are also available for pets. You can travel with your beloved pet for just $22 per kennel each way.

If travelling with a pet, it is a requirement your pet travels in a Spirit of Tasmania kennel. Our kennels are located on ventilated decks. Fresh water is supplied and regular checks are performed on pets throughout the sailing.

One kennel must be booked per pet unless the animal is a mother with pups or kittens.

Smaller animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, birds or chickens should be carried in their own cage and then placed into a kennel

If you are carrying livestock, please contact us on 1800 884 305 to make your booking.
