Hobart

The capital of Tasmania and Australia’s second oldest city, Hobart lies in the foothills of Mt Wellington and along the Derwent River. It’s a beautiful summer destination, on warm afternoons the sea breeze blows and yachts tack across the river.

Established in 1803, the city maintains its rich history – visit Battery Point, one of the finest colonial suburbs in Australia. Head to Salamanca Place for all kinds of shopping – from galleries to outdoor adventure clothes and designer threads. Or explore Hobart’s waterfront and indulge in an ocean-fresh rock lobster lunch.
