Easing of restrictions on June 5 means Tasmanians can travel anywhere in the state. Accommodation is available again and many attractions, activities and food services are reopening to welcome visitors back to the Far South. Click HERE for an updated list.
Where the mountains and forest meet the Great Southern Ocean... Flanked to the west by the rugged world of the South-West National Park, the Far South also has many sheltered, quiet bays and beaches along its eastern flank, around which most settlement occurs. This blend of bush and bay offers visitors many opportunities to be out in nature. Walk a deserted beach, fish for your dinner, go boating, catch a wave or simply enjoy the stillness and beauty of the surrounding forest or summit’s peak.
At the end of the day, relax and unwind at your choice of quality accommodation. The rich natural diversity of this region, and its remoteness, offers much in the way of solitude and exploration. Travelling further south through the Huon Valley, you will come to..................
43 degrees of pure southern latitude! Quiet – Fresh – Beautiful.
