In a nationwide vote by Nine readers and viewers, Wineglass Bay has been named the number one beach in Australia, a well-deserved accolade for this stunning coastal treasure on Tasmania’s East Coast. Nestled within the rugged expanse of Freycinet National Park, Wineglass Bay is a serene stretch of white sand, perfectly cradled between two towering red granite mountain ranges. These ancient formations, known as the Hazards, rise dramatically from the landscape, creating a natural amphitheatre that shelters the bay’s crystal-clear waters.
At the foot of these granite sentinels lies the crescent-shaped Wineglass Bay, a secluded paradise where the azure waves gently kiss the shore, inviting visitors to bask in its untouched beauty. The bay’s pristine sands and tranquil ambiance offer a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
