The East Coast

How does endless stretches of turquoise water, foamy surf, brilliantly white sandy beaches, salty seamist and driftwood sound? The East coast drive route is one of the most picturesque drive routes of not only Tasmania but truly is one of the best in the world. The beautiful Bay of Fires, one of Lonely Planet’s top 10 regions in the world, striking national parks including the stunning Freycinet National Park with its pink granite mountains, white beaches and crystal clear sea. The freshest of seafood to sample at St Helens, berry farms, cheese and delicious local foods makes the East coast well worth the time to stop and savor the moment.

Mathinna Falls

A series of four cascading waterfalls over a total drop of 80 metres, the Mathinna Falls are truly a spectacular sight. A short 15-minute drive from Mathinna it’s well worth the visit.
From the car park, an easy 30-minute return walk leads to the base of the falls to see however the sounds of gushing water will reach you long before the view.
