We Sailed to the World’s Largest Prison Island

Cold plunges, octopus attacks and mass murder…It’s hard to imagine all that’s happened here, in a place with such impressive landscape, and marine life. We’re in Tasmania, Australia’s isolated island state with a cruel and dark past. Its treacherous surrounding seas made it a natural prison ideal for Britain to put their most difficult. We’re pulling out of the marina after resolving some issues, hoping this time we can finally get our lap of Australia back underway. Enjoying the episodes?
