Slow down. Exhale. You’ve arrived on Tasmania’s east coast—a place of white sandy beaches, turquoise waters, friendly locals, and unforgettable adventures. Here, it’s not uncommon to have a beach all to yourself, explore a pristine national park, eat southern rock lobster, drink the finest pinot noir and stroll through a seaside town—all in the same perfect day. This is where you will discover the Bay of Fires, Wineglass Bay, Bicheno, Maria Island and so much more.

This journey takes you to unforgettable places, from iconic beaches to award-winning walks, breathtaking views, and indulgent food and wine.
