Tasmania
Separated from mainland Australia by the 240 km stretch of Bass Strait, Tasmania is just an hour’s flight, or an overnight cruise aboard the Spirit of Tasmania, from Melbourne.
First settled as a penal colony in 1803, Tasmania boasts a fascinating history and rich heritage. With short distances between attractions, self-drive is an ideal way to discover the wild and beautiful landscapes, ancient wilderness, amazing wildlife, fresh local produce and wonderful cool-climate wines of this rejuvenating island state.
MUST SEE & DO
- Discover the heritage charm of picturesque Hobart, the pristine waters of Bruny Island, or the mesmerising history of Port Arthur
- Walk, kayak, dive or cruise the intense aqua waters, or simply relax on the secluded beaches and enjoy the stunning scenery of The East Coast
- Admire the fine Victorian buildings of Launceston, visit the boutique cool climate wineries of the Tamar Valley, or explore the charming historic towns of The North
- Share the creative spirit of local artists and craftsmen, inspired by the fertile green hills, picturesque protected harbours and unspoilt wilderness areas of The North West Coast
- Explore The Western Wilderness to discover convict history, pioneering heritage and one of the most significant World Heritage areas on earth
