There are plenty of Hobart Boat Tours which offer unforgettable cruises to some of the most picturesque protected lands of the state. So what are you waiting for?

Visit Kunanyi/Mount Wellington

A favourite tourist destination among both visitors and locals in Hobart, the Kunanyi/Mount Wellington offers amazing views of the city and beyond. There are a number of easily accessible boardwalks that take you to raised viewing platforms that give you the feeling as if you’re in an entirely different world. When the days are particularly windy, there is an observation shelter for visitors at the pinnacle, where you can enjoy the views without being bothered by the strong and cold winds. There are plenty of great walks on the mountain and in the water and you are most likely to find the mountain snow capped. If possible, don’t miss out on a sunset or sunrise at Kunanyi, because they’re the best!

Wineglass Bay

Perhaps the most famous view in Tasmania is looking out across the azure blue waters of Wineglass Bay on the eastern coast of Tasmania within the laid-back Freycinet National Park. You will get a fantastic view of this part of Tasmania from the lookout and the splendid sweeping curve of the white sandy beach fringing the blue waters. If you set out down to the beach from the lookout, you are most likely to be greeted by the small wallabies that call Wineglass Bay their home. An absolutely iconic destination, Wineglass Bay should be ticked off on everyone’s bucket list.

Bay of Fires—East Coast

The Bay of Fires is situated on the eastern coast of Tasmania, a truly Instagram worthy destination not to be missed. Clear blue waters and spectacular white sands await you at this beautiful location.

The colours are simply vibrant and outstanding,the beaches being pristine spaces where you don’t have to fight the crowds to find a picturesque and comfortable spot.
