THE LOCATION Full of colour and flavour, this location is the gateway to some of Tasmania's most beautiful natural places. Exploring this location you'll find classic coastal drives, food trails, stunning national parks and beautiful nature reserves.

The rugged and beautiful Coast of Tasmania is a tourist mecca, has a strong agricultural sector, and a developing innovative industrial sector. Air and sea transport options in the area are both very accessible, so visiting the rest of Tasmania, as well as mainland Australia, is very easy. Air travel from Devonport to Melbourne is less than one hour and relatively inexpensive. The Tasmanian housing market is very attractive to both families and investors, as house prices are significantly lower than on mainland Australia.

The population of the area is approximately 116,000 within a total Tasmanian population of around 500,000. There's a wealth of stories here too, with great museums and significant Aboriginal heritage sites, while the region's creative spirit is showcased in the many art galleries, public artworks, artisan shops and markets found along the coast.

Tasmania is also home to Cradle Mountain, one of Tasmania's most visited icons, offering amazing nature experiences including forest adventures, great walks - easy and hard - and some of the best scenery in the world.

Whichever way you explore the region, there's no shortage of great places to stay, eat and enjoy in Tasmania.
