Tasmania Beaches - Live conditions across the island coast
About Tasmania
Tasmania's coast is wild, cold and dramatic. Pristine white sand against turquoise water, framed by temperate rainforest and granite outcrops. The clearest ocean water in Australia. Embrace the cold or bring a wetsuit. We score 1 beaches daily.
What Makes It Special
- •Bay of Fires and Freycinet sit within a few hours of each other on the east coast, two of the world's most photographed coastal landscapes
- •The clearest ocean water in Australia: Tasmania's low population and minimal runoff keeps coastal visibility exceptional at almost every beach
- •Genuinely wild and remote: hundreds of kilometres of coastline with zero development, reachable only on foot or by boat
Best Time to Visit
December to March for warmest swimming, still around 16 to 18°C (embrace it or bring a wetsuit). Year-round for coastal hiking and lookout walks. Summer fills accommodation fast on the east coast, so book months ahead.
