Tasmania

This small island just south of Australia was once a battle ground between the British and the aboriginal people, yet today is one of the most stunning places of natural beauty, history, and adventure!

The island of Tasmania is perhaps Australia's favourite getaway for a vacation. With exquisite museums, massive spreads of open land, national parks, and the ocean right by the side, Tasmania is a wonderful escape from the usual hustle-bustle of the mainland. The vibrant culture and the welcoming people are just another addition to make this an ideal holiday. The museum like the Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) and the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery are one of the most brilliantly built museums in the country. MONA, especially, is home to Australia's biggest private collection is exuberates sheer elegance. Of course, though, when you're in Tasmania, the outdoors are where all the fun lies. The Freycinet National Park, where the iconic Wineglass Bay is located, sees hordes of visitors every year, and the same can be said for the Cradle Mountain-Lake St. Claire National Park. Both are humungous, have tons and tons of trekking trails, spectacular views, lush and colourful flora, and so much more. For a lover of the outdoors, it just doesn't get any better! Tasmania welcomes thousands of visitors every year and has been rising consistently due to its influx of tourism, so hop on and find out why!
