Tasmania is one of Australia’s hidden gems, known for its natural beauty, mysterious wilderness, delicious local food and wine, and historical sites. Planning a trip around Hobart’s waterfront will be a decision you won’t regret as you take in one of the world’s most vibrant outdoor markets and the heartbeat of Tassie’s culture, at Salamanca Market. The UNESCO World Heritage Site of Port Arthur is an open-air museum with a fascinating convict history. If you’re feeling brave be sure to book the Ghost Tour. The World Heritage attraction of Cradle Mountain is one of the most stunning scenes you’ll find the world over, glacial lakes, mountains, grasslands, rainforest and if you’re lucky you may spot a Tasmanian Devil. Freycinet National Park featuring Wineglass Bay with its stunning crescent moon beach and turquoise water is the place to visit. Pristine and only accessible by hiking or by boat means you’ll have this place almost to yourself.
Tassie will truly take your breath away.
