Swansea

Swansea is located on the east coast of Tasmania, 110 klms north east of Hobart.

This cosy town is nestled on the beautiful Great Oyster Bay and overlooks The Freycinet National Park and Southern Island which arc round to the east of this large bay. This is by far our favourite place to stay when visiting Tasmania, with our accommodation being stone cottages located right on the beach overlooking the bay. This place is magical.
