    Bush Walking Trail

    Freycinet Resort is pleased to offer a beautiful 4.7km bush walking trail, exclusive to resort guests. This is your chance to get away from all the hustle and bustle of everyday life and reconnect with nature in the most tranquil of settings. Experience the same diversity of Tasmanian flora and fauna that you’d expect to find in our national parks, without needing to leave the resort. This is a Grade 4 walking track, which can be challenging in parts and may not be suitable for all guests. Please refer to the information board at the entrance to the trail, and make sure wear suitable clothing for the season.

  • Private sunset lookout

    Dolphin Sands Lookout

    As you make your way off the main road and into the private, secluded surroundings of Freycinet Resort, you might spot our newly constructed Dolphin Sands Lookout. Situated between the entrance gate and the resort reception, the lookout area offers spectacular views across a wide expanse of forest to Dolphin Sands. Take some time to relax on the deck and check out the sculpture by Tasmanian artist Folko Kooper. Make sure you pop back at sunset for an outstanding photo opportunity.

  • Playground for kids

    Playground

    Freycinet Resort loves to welcome family travellers. We have a fully fenced playground at the resort, with swings, slides and climbing equipment, as well as a large open space suitable for ball games and free play. Conveniently located right beside our Sculpture Garden, BBQ Facilities and Picnic Area, the secure playground provides a chance for parents to relax nearby with a drink or dinner and admire the spectacular views across to Dolphin Sands and Great Oyster Bay.

  • BBQ Facilities

    BBQ Facilities and Picnic Area

    Everything tastes better when you eat outside, which is why we’ve added BBQ Facilities and a Picnic Area to the Freycinet Resort site. The East Coast offers an abundance of food and drink – from farm gates and cellar doors to small delis, local shops and oyster farms. We warmly invite our guests to take full advantage of the fresh produce on offer, before bringing it back to enjoy at the resort. With sweeping views across Great Oyster Bay, you won’t find a better located kitchen in Tasmania – and with our Sculpture Garden and children’s playground nearby there’s plenty to keep you entertained while the grill heats up.

  • Bird spotting

    Birdspotting and Wildlife Watching

    With 1200 acres of private nature reserve right on our doorstep, there are boundless opportunities to get up close and personal with some of Tasmania’s native wildlife. The wallabies are impossible to miss, but if you keep quiet and alert, especially after dusk, you can also expect to see possums, quolls, echidnas, and perhaps even a Tasmanian devil. Birdwatchers will enjoy the sight of cockatoos, rosellas, superb fairy wrens, robins and honeyeaters, and should also keep their eyes on the sky in case there’s a wedge-tailed eagle soaring above.

The immediate surroundings of the Freycinet Peninsula offer plentiful opportunities to get out and explore, or sample deliciously fresh local produce.
  • Freycinet Marine Farm - Some of Tasmania’s best oysters can be found at Freycinet Marine Farm

    Freycinet Marine Farm

    Some of Tasmania’s best seafood can be found at Freycinet Marine Farm, just by the entrance to the resort. Oysters and mussels are harvested from the farm daily, and local fisherman provide the farm with fresh scallops, abalone, rock lobster and sea urchin. Sit and enjoy lunch with a local wine or beer on the deck, or take your food away for a beach picnic later in the day.

  • Freycinet Walking Tour - Explore Freycinet with a local guide

    Freycinet Walking Tour

    On the Freycinet Walking Tour, you’ll have the opportunity to kick off your shoes and enjoy a cuppa on the squeaky shores of Wineglass Bay, stride empty white beaches to hidden bays for a gourmet picnic lunch, before conveniently boarding a boat from the depths of the peninsula to retrace your sandy steps across the water.

  • Freycinet National Park - Full of spectacular natural features and dramatic landscapes

    Freycinet National Park

    Full of spectacular natural features and dramatic landscapes, Freycinet National Park occupies most of the Freycinet Peninsula. This is where you’ll find iconic Wineglass Bay, regularly voted one of the world’s best beaches; breathtaking coastal views around Cape Tourville Lighthouse; and azure waters that are perfect for swimming, snorkelling and diving. A Parks Pass is required, and can be purchased online or at the visitor centre in Coles Bay.

    To experience the stunning beauty of Wineglass Bay from the water, book a 4.5-hour Wineglass Bay Cruise.

    Offering half day and multiday experiences, Freycinet Adventures is the leading provider of sea kayak tours in the Freycinet area. Departing from Coles Bay, they’ll provide all the gear you need and will make sure you’re comfortable on the water. Whatever the weather, seeing the beautiful granite mountains and great expanses of sand from the water is a special experience that’s not to be missed.

  • Hazards Brewing Coffee

    Hazards Brewing Coffee

    For some of the best coffee in the area, track down the Hazards Brewing Coffee Company. Roaming around the Freycinet Peninsula, this coffee truck serves up Tasmanian roasted coffee and tea blends, along with a selection of freshly baked muffins, pastries and biscuits. It’s the perfect place to stock up before you head out on a bush walk – keep an eye on their social media for details of where to find them each day.

Tasmania's East Coast is full of wonderful things to discover. Satisfy your wanderlust by travelling a little further afield.
  • East Coast Wine Trail

    East Coast Wine Trail

    The mild climate on Tasmania’s East Coast makes it a perfect environment for cool climate wines, and many of the cellar doors are within easy reach. The newly built lookout tower at Devils’ Corner Cellar Door affords great views of the Hazards, while Spring Vale features a charming convict-built stable. Freycinet Vineyard is another great option where you can also try the extra virgin olive oil produced onsite.

  • Douglas Apsley National Park

    Douglas Apsley National Park

    Keen walkers might like to head to Douglas Apsley National Park, less than an hour’s drive from Freycinet. One of Tasmania’s newer national parks, declared in 1989, Douglas-Apsley contains one of the state’s last remaining areas of uncleared dry forest. There are several walks ranging from 15 minutes to several hours, and the clear waters of the Apsley Waterhole are a favourite swimming spot for locals and visitors alike.

  • Bicheno Blowhole

    Bicheno Blowhole

    Bicheno is a charming fishing village about 20 minutes from Freycinet Resort, popular with holiday makers, surfers and seafood lovers. Bicheno’s most famous attraction is the spectacular blowhole: a granite sea cave, into which water surges and erupts upwards like a geyser. The blowhole makes for a spectacular photo opportunity, but don’t turn your back on it, and remember your raincoat.

  • Kate’s Berry Farm

    Kate’s Berry Farm

    It’s hard to imagine a better place to sit in summer than the wisteria-draped deck at Kate’s Berry Farm near Swansea. With handmade chocolates, fruitpies and deliciously smooth ice cream all available, take the time to enjoy the food and the spectacular sea view. Don’t forget to buy a punnet or two of fresh berries when you leave – perfect for a picnic, or breakfast the next morning.

  • Bay of Fires

    Bay of Fires

    It’s about a two-hour drive from Freycinet Resort to the iconic Bay of Fires, so if you’re staying with us for a few days it’s a journey well worth making. Spanning 50km of coastline, from Binalong Bay in the south to Eddystone Point in the North, there are clean white beaches around every corner, crystal clear waters perfect for diving, and granite headlands covered in distinctive orange lichen. It’s no surprise that this camera-friendly region was once chosen by Lonely Planet as the world’s hottest holiday destination.
