The East Coast

    Any travel agent can issue a ticket or book a cruise . . .
    We create Travel Experiences . . . that extra effort is our hallmark!

The east coast of Tasmania is has the finest weather in the state and is often called "Tasmania's Suncoast". The area boasts pristine sandy beaches, breathtaking ocean views, rainforests, famous national parks, superb food and delicious wines. Darlington convict settlement ruins is on Maria Island.  Freycinet National Park is home to the famous Freycinet Lodge.

The two largest towns on the east coast are St. Helens and Bicheno, both wonderful fishing ports.   Bicheno hosts a sealife park plus a bird life and animal park and has a little penguin rookery at Diamond Island Resort where you can take a Bicheno Penguin Tour. Swansea is another town with well-preserved colonial buildings, churches and elegant Georgian guest houses.  

There is a lot to do on the east coast from swimming, scuba diving, golf, horseback riding, cruising, fishing, bushwalking, sea kayaking, rock climbing, and hiking to just watching the beautiful scenery.

Wineglass Bay, one of the top 10 beaches in the world!  It is a 2-hour hike to get down to this pristine crescent of pure white sand.
