Laura Beausire writes for the TravelAge West and shares what to do in Tasmania ~
“Since approximately 40% of Tasmania is protected wilderness, including 19 national parks, the state is a great place to go outside and play. Guests of On Board, a new expedition cruise line (and award-winning member of Luxury Lodges of Australia), climb into a seaplane floating in Hobart’s harbor and soar over the mountains to reach the vast remote, and road-free Southwest National Park.
At the park, located in the UNESCO-listed Tasmanian Wilderness, they’re welcomed onboard 79-foot catamaran Odalisque III. Accommodating 12 passengers in seven cabins with all the comforts of a boutique hotel — including chef-prepared meals and locally sourced libations — the vessel embarks on four- and six-day itineraries with excursions to secluded inlets, pristine beaches and magnificent mountain terrain where clients can explore Tasmanian flora and fauna.
20-suite, all-inclusive Saffire Freycinet, also a member of Luxury Lodges of Australia, offers a sumptuous spa, a sophisticated restaurant and sweeping views of the Hazards mountain range and Great Oyster Bay within the east coast’s Freycinet National Park. The resort’s imaginative list of special offerings includes a Seafood and Sparkling Cruise and the Tasmanian Devil Experience”.
