  • Wineglass Bay
  • 1 Day

Overview

Discover the wild beauty, coastal drama, and iconic landscapes of Tasmania’s East Coast on this full‑day Wineglass Bay Explorer Active Tour departing from Launceston. Designed for travellers who want to experience Freycinet National Park’s most celebrated highlights without the stress of driving or planning, this small‑group adventure blends scenic walks, local flavours, and unforgettable viewpoints into one seamless day. From the moment you leave Launceston, the journey unfolds through charming historic towns, dramatic granite mountains, and pristine bays that showcase why this region is considered one of Australia’s most breathtaking coastal destinations.

Your day begins with a stop in the Georgian township of Campbell Town, where convict history and artisan bakeries set the tone for a day rich in stories and scenery. As you approach Freycinet National Park, the striking pink peaks of The Hazards rise ahead—your first glimpse of the rugged beauty that defines this UNESCO‑listed landscape. A short, spectacular walk along the Cape Tourville Lighthouse circuit offers sweeping 360‑degree views before the tour’s signature experience: the ascent to the Wineglass Bay Lookout. This rewarding 45‑minute walk leads to one of the most photographed vistas in the Southern Hemisphere, where white sand curves around turquoise water in a perfect natural arc.

Travellers seeking a deeper connection can continue down to the beach itself, while others may explore Honeymoon Bay, Sleepy Bay, and additional coastal lookouts with the guide. The afternoon slows into a relaxed finale at Devil’s Corner Winery, perched high above the coastline. Here, you can unwind with a glass of Tasmanian wine, fresh seafood, woodfired pizza, or artisan gelato as you take in panoramic views of Freycinet’s dramatic coastline.

With knowledgeable guides, comfortable transport, and a thoughtfully curated itinerary, this tour is ideal for active travellers, nature lovers, and anyone wanting to experience Wineglass Bay’s world‑class beauty in a single, unforgettable day.

Wineglass Bay is the jewel of Freycinet National Park, celebrated as one of the world’s most beautiful beaches. Its perfect curve of white sand and vivid turquoise water creates a breathtaking contrast against the pink‑granite peaks of The Hazards. Reached via a rewarding 45–60 minute uphill walk, the lookout reveals one of the best vistas in the Southern Hemisphere, offering a sweeping panorama over treetops to the bay’s flawless arc. Travellers can continue down to the beach for swimming, relaxing, or dolphin spotting, making Wineglass Bay the unforgettable centrepiece of any East Coast Tasmanian adventure.
