relaxing
Tasmania’s east coast is so full of opportunities to stop, take a breath and genuinely relax, you might even forget what busy feels like.
This is a place that makes it impossible not to unwind. Stand at a lookout and get lost in the view. Savour a long lunch that lasts until dinner. Recline on the deck of a yacht while your skipper shows you one of the most beautiful coastlines in the world. Or spend the whole day on a long white beach, with nothing to do but stroll, swim, and watch the open sky and the clear blue sea.
You’ll find countless places on the Great Eastern Drive where you can truly relax—from luxury resorts and eco-lodges to intimate cabins and welcoming B&Bs—fine food and wine to treat your taste buds, and experiences that will fill you with wonder instead of worry.
When you make a choice to simply wander, time is on your side. Stop when you like, and take as long as you like, and unwind on the Great Eastern Drive.
