For a small state, Tasmania has a lot going for it, especially when it comes to nature. Some of the most amazing nature sites I’ve seen, have been on one of the best beaches in Tasmania. Tassie offers a more rugged, wild, and unspoiled natural landscape, and the wilderness in places like the Gordon River and Bruny Island is unlike anywhere else in the world. Whether you’re looking for a beach to swim from, a beach with unique rock formations, or historical heritage, then you’re going to...

My favourite area of Hobart is Salamanca Place with its historic Georgian sandstone buildings, warehouses, pubs, and cafes. But most importantly, I love it because it also plays host to the famous Salamanca Market every Saturday morning. We spent several days in Hobart and having been told by many of our readers commenting on our facebook page that we can’t miss these markets, we made sure we time our stay over a weekend.

Wondering what to do in Hobart? We spent 6 days in Hobart, Australia’s second-oldest city and Tasmania’s capital city, and found there was so much to see and do. It’s not the biggest of cities by Australian standards, but there are enough things to do in Hobart to warrant several day’s visit. Hobart Australia, Road Trip Routes, Capital City

If you’re looking for a destination of historical importance in Tasmania, then a visit to the Port Arthur Historic Site is one of the top things to do. This historic town is located on the Tasman Peninsula and is known for being a 19th-century penal settlement, where the remains of the penitentiary are still there. Today the small town is an open air museum giving tourists a chance to see a glimpse into Australia’s darker past. Port Arthur, Ghost Tour

MONA Museum, or the Museum of Old and New Art, has been billed as the place that revitalized Hobart and put it high up on the must-see destination list of Tasmania in Australia. It is the largest privately funded museum in Australia and I’ve been keen for years to see what all the fuss is about. It’s not only a place for art lovers, but it’s a space for entertainment. The founder David Walsh has described the museum as a “subversive adult Disneyland.” This might be why it’s considered one...

Situated on the northeast coast of Tasmania, the Bay of Fires is a region of white beaches, blue water, and these incredible orange-hued granite rock formations in which the fiery colour is produced by a lichen. We spent the morning there climbing over the rocks, wandering the beaches, and being mesmerized by the colours. Rock Formations, Words To Describe, The Rock, Wander, Coast, Bay, Australia

If you’re looking for short walks in Tasmania, then you’re going to want to check out the Liffey Falls Circuit. It’s a short stroll through the mossy forest of the Central Plateau Conservation Area that takes you to see some of the most striking waterfalls in Tas. We were desperate for a short walk in the bush on our trip to Tasmania and so we scheduled a walk to Liffey Falls. It’s not a strenuous or long walk, but without the kids, we could have walked for 40 minutes and quietly absorb the...

Tasmania has a list called “60 Great Short Walks,” and one of the top walks on that list is the walk around Dove Lake beneath Cradle Mountain. We love to walk and hike but our days of strenuous walking are over for now with having young kids, which made the Dove Lake walk sound like the ideal short walk.
