The East Coast Escape is a spectacular 252 kilometre coastal journey from the marvels of Maria Island, to the Freycinet Coast Bay, and on to the Bay of Fires, north of St Helens. The journey is along one of Australia's most magnificent coastal stretches.
See pristine, sandy beaches, breathtaking ocean views, relict rainforest, fossil-filled cliffs, azure waters, pink granite peaks, and famous national parks. Savour superb food and delicious wine to tempt any gournet, and experience an island penal settlement of the 19th century.
And it's a coast of activities - bushwalking, sea kayaking, nature cruises, diving, penguin and dolphin tours, swimming, surfing, golf, horse riding and great ocean and rive fishing. Or simply enjoy the wines, the fine foods, the historic displays and buildings, and the wildlife. You could try a charter flight from Cambridge airport near Hobart for a magical perspective of the Coast's dramatic landscapes.
It's no wonder the sunny East Coast is known as Tasmania's holiday playground.
