Two iconic destinations to explore
When the crowds drift away and Tasmania exhales, Bruny Island and Coles Bay reveal their most authentic selves. Off-season is when these iconic destinations slow to a gentler rhythm—misty mornings, golden light, empty beaches, crackling fires, and uninterrupted time to simply be. From coastal walks shared only with wildlife to long lunches, local flavours, and immersive nature experiences, this is a time for deeper connection, quiet luxury, and meaningful escape. Winter and shoulder season aren’t about missing out—they’re about discovering Tasmania at its most soulful, personal, and unforgettable.
Exuberant Bruny Island
Bruny Island is a microcosm of the Tasmanian mainland. It is blessed with an extraordinarily diverse range of distinct environments - spectacular coastlines, geological wonders, beaches, rainforests, mountains, lagoons, abundant flora and fauna - an environmental cornucopia; all at your doorstep!
Come and immerse in nature this Off Season at Bruny Island!

Amazing Freycinet & Wineglass Bay
This 38km long promontory of wild, pristine coast is a land of sugar-white beaches, clear blue seas, ancient forests and heathlands scattered with rare wildflowers. The entire Peninsula, including Friendly Beaches, Wineglass Bay and Schouten Island, is encompassed in the Freycinet National Park. Established in 1916, this is Tasmania’s oldest national park.
