Eddystone Point: A Cultural and Natural Gem

Known as Larapuna in the local Aboriginal language, Eddystone Point is part of the traditional territory of Tasmanian Aborigines. Explore the rich cultural history, witness the stunning pink granite lighthouse, and immerse yourself in the beauty of this natural gem.

Ansons Bay and Policemans Point

The small fishing village of Ansons Bay is famous for its premier bream fishing. With approximately 200 houses scattered along the shores and proximity to the historic Eddystone Point Lighthouse, it's a must-visit destination for fishing enthusiasts. Ansons Bay Lagoon is a perfect haven for kayaking.

The Gardens

For a must-see section of this coastline, The Gardens takes the spotlight. Despite the absence of actual gardens, Lady Jane Franklin, wife of an early Governor of Tasmania, coined the name in admiration of the abundant wildflowers. With its striking rock formations and the signature Bay of Fires colour palette (orange, blue, and white), The Gardens perfectly captures the area's unique beauty. One of the best ways to see the rocks is from a Bay of Fires Eco Cruise.

Sloop Lagoon and Sloop Reef

Explore the premier aquatic haven beneath the Sloop Reef campground, a cherished local swimming spot in the Bay of Fires. This concealed treasure provides an unmatched experience, making it the preferred destination for a rejuvenating swim in the clear, crystalline waters.

Just above the high tide mark near Sloop Reef Camping ground, the Mermaid Pool awaits. A popular spot among locals, this pool is approximately 3 meters deep and crystal clear – ideal for a dip or a snorkel.

Seaton Cove forms a U-shaped, east-facing expanse, spanning 100 meters in width and 250 meters in depth. It is embraced by sloping granite rocks and lush headlands rich with vegetation. At the cove's apex lies a beach, a 50-meter stretch of sand gently descending into a sandy bay floor adorned with scattered rocks.

Cosy Corner South and North

Explore the serene haven north of Binalong Bay, where two enchanting corners, North and South, cradle a stretch of pristine white sand. Whether you prefer a refreshing dip or wish to unwind on your towel, Cosy Corners offers the perfect escape.
