Start your self-drive adventure in the scenic capital of Hobart to experience Tasmania’s pulsing heartbeat. This city is ideal for exploring by foot and has a myriad of activities, restaurants and galleries on offer in the city and wharf district. Catch a ferry from Brooke Street Pier to the famous Museum of Old and New Art (Mona), but not before sampling some of Tasmania’s best boutique produce on offer at Brooke Street’s upper level. Admire the impressive architecture of Mona as you approach from the Derwent River and spend a full day exploring the quirky art exhibitions and displays underground. Finish your day in the lively suburb of North Hobart, home to a range of multicultural restaurants and laidback wine bars.

Coles Bay is the beautiful gateway to explore world-class Freycinet National Park with beautiful Wineglass Bay. Set up your camper for the night at the spectacular free camping site within the park and dine at Coles Bay where you will find world-class seafood restaurants. Enjoy a leisurely walk around Coles Bay and take in the looming view of the Hazards cutting an impressive silhouette.

Start the day early and brace yourself to experience one of the best views in the state. Wineglass Bay Lookout is just a short hike away and here you will be greeted by a clear blue bay and pristine-white beach. Though not so much a secret anymore, if you feel like a hike the views from the top of nearby Mount Amos are unparalleled.

St Helens is just a short drive from the world-renowned Bay of Fires, voted one of the best beaches in the world. Base yourself in St Helens and take a day trip to Bay of Fires to experience magnificent white sand beaches and unique orange lichen-covered rocks that are known for making an appearance in many of Tasmania’s most famous paintings.
