Tasmania crams a lot of diversity into a small island. It is the most southerly Australian state, with cool weather and a climate having four distinct seasons. It's an island rugged mountains, rivers, beaches, bays and sheltered inlets with many of Australia's best preserved historical sites. With 30% of the island in classified National Parks and reserves, it is a haven for wilderness junkies. It has some of the most rugged, remote and unspoiled wilderness areas in the world.
Tasmania has exceptionally fresh air, pure water, fertile soil and is a producer of many gourmet foods to Australia and the world. Tasmanian seafood is also well known to world markets and a thriving dairy industry makes good use of the soft lush pastures. Much of Tasmania's flora and fauna is unique, having taken a different evolutionary path than their mainland cousins. Quarantine regulations are strict and no fruit, vegetable or plant can be taken into Tasmania.

Tasmania
At A Glance?
A quiet unhurried part of
the world with sleepy villages and old stone cottages conjuring up
images of parts of rural England. The distances are short by Australian
standards and touring is not demanding.
