The scenic Freycinet Peninsula is where you’ll find iconic Wineglass Bay. It’s been dubbed the world’s best so many times, but it hasn’t gone to its head. The curvy white sands and brilliant blue waters are still unaffected by all the attention. Seeing the famous beach for yourself is reason enough to visit, but there’s natural beauty around every corner on Tasmania’s spectacular East Coast.

Experience the vast and varied scenery surrounding Edge of the Bay. From the impressive granite mountain range known as The Hazards, to Freycinet National Park and the views stretching out over the Tasman Sea from Cape Tourville Lighthouse.
