  • Australia's Natural State
    Discover Tasmania Australia’s Natural State Tasmania, Australia’s island state, is about the same size as Scotland, and, like Scotland, is also renowned for its great natural beauty. Recently, the Tasmanian experience has been undergoing a sophisticated change. While you can still spend a lot of your time surrounded by unspoilt wilderness, there are now also plenty of opportunities to spoil yourself. Luxurious accommodation, mountains of fresh produce and mouth-watering boutique wines ensure non-stop pampering at the end of a day’s adventuring. As you wander on a deserted white sand beach your only thought of other people will be as dining companions later that day, when you share local wines or nibble on freshly shucked oysters at a luxury beachfront standing camp. Go trout fishing in wild rivers and highland lakes, then relax with a Tasmanian-distilled single malt whisky in an intimate five-star lodge or a charming bed and breakfast. Take an eco-cruise under towering sea cliffs then dine out in an award-winning restaurant on the catch of the day, to tales of encounters with whales, dolphins, sea eagles and a mighty coastline. Step out with rare wildlife. Wild quolls and Tasmanian devils are found nowhere else in the world and while you may have to go nocturnal to see these unique creatures, wombats, wallabies and platypus can be readily encountered during the day. Revel in the rollicking tales and the grand sandstone buildings which define our convict past, or trace your family back a few centuries – your forebears may have helped to shape our colonial history.
