Whether you choose to arrive by road or water, the journey there is equally as breathtaking. But for a truly unique experience, hop on the camouflaged Mona ferry and sail over in style. Departing from Brooke Street Pier in Hobart, the high-speed ferry will have you arriving in no time, ready to be amazed by the art and architecture that awaits you. Don’t miss out on exploring this iconic museum on your next trip to Tasmania.

Imagine embarking on an adventure where you feel like the main character in a James Bond movie. Catching the ferry from Brooke Street Pier to Mona and back can make your dream come true. Don’t worry about driving or parking; the Mona Roma ferries run regularly throughout the day. The 25-minute scenic cruise up the Derwent River is breathtaking and offers drinks onboard for your enjoyment. Choose a seat in the traditional area, or climb atop a sheep or tiger for a quirky experience. But, if you’re feeling extra fancy and looking for a luxurious experience, treat yourself to a Posh Pit ticket. You’ll be treated to complimentary drinks, canapes, and table service while lounging in an exclusive lounge, bar and private deck. Mona was created to be approached by water, and taking the ferry is one of the best ways to experience this incredible museum.
