Tasmania
Made up of a collection of smaller islands surrounding the larger mainland, Tasmania is an island state off the coast of Australia.
40% of the population of Tasmania live in the state capital, Hobart, yet it is still the least populated state capital in Australia. Highlights include the botanical gardens, The Museum of Old and New Art, the Maritime Museum and the nearby Mount Wellington, with a number of docks, piers and markets to explore.
Tasmania is brimming with opportunities for walking, hiking and adventure holidays with an abundance of national parks, such as Tasman, Mount Field, Lime Bay State Reserve and Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park.
Separated from mainland Australia, Tasmania is a great place to spot wildlife. Home to more than just it’s famous devil, with endemic species like the pademelon as well as platypus and wombats. Little penguins are found on the coast, with dolphins and humpback whales migrating through.
