Video images of Tasmania

Hobart is the capital city of Tasmania and is Australia's second oldest State capital. It is unique, having all the amenities of a thriving city but is only minutes from a wide variety of natural beauties. Hobart retains the flavour of a small town with a leisurely pace and a population of just 160 000. The city lies between Mt Wellington and the Derwent Estuary, a deep water port.

There are many fine examples of Georgian and Victorian architecture, most notably Salamanca Place which has a terrace of warehouses dating back to the whaling days of the 1830's. At nearby Battery Point, the original seamen's quarters of the city, plus the Maquarie and Davey Street precinct, offer more than 60 historic buildings classified by the National Trust.

Hobart features internationally each year as the finish line of the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race. Sullivans Cove is popular all year round as a major southern port for overseas cruise liners.

Hobart Surrounds

For the 'shoppers' amongst us the markets and festivals in Tasmania cater for all tastes. Australia's biggest craft fair is held in Deloraine each November. In addition there are monthly festivals, including Hobart's Summer Festival and the Taste of Tasmania.

Each year Hobart also welcomes the Targa Tasmania drivers, teams and supporters, adding to the excitement of the region.

A short drive will take you to the convict settlement remnants at Port Arthur and the Central Highlands in the East. Tasmania is ideal for self driving holidays and a Bargain Wheels car rental is a great way to see the best that the island has to offer.

Hobart Accommodation & Dining

Salamanca Place and Market are the foremost areas in Tasmania for dining and entertainment with a variety of pubs, clubs and restaurants.

Hobart also caters for all travellers and visitors with a full selection of accommodation, including 5 star hotels, resorts, motels and backpacker hostels.
