Wineglass Bay is a big drive from Hobart, which is exactly why it pays to let someone else take the wheel. This small group day trip handles the kilometres up the east coast so you can save your energy for the walk that matters. Pick up starts from 7am, and by 7:30am you are heading north through the coastal towns of Orford and Swansea to Freycinet National Park. Your guide leads the 1.3km climb to the Wineglass Bay Lookout, around 45 minutes uphill, where the pink granite peaks frame that curve of white sand and turquoise water. Keen walkers can continue down to Wineglass Bay Beach for a chilly swim, a 6km return walk that takes two to two and a half hours. Prefer to keep it easy? Stay with your guide to explore Honeymoon Bay, where you stop for lunch, and the Cape Tourville Lighthouse walk with its wide ocean views. On the way home you pull into Devil's Corner, where you can taste local wine and order fresh seafood from Freycinet Marine Farm at The Fishers cafe before rolling back into Hobart around 6pm. Spending longer on the coast? Our Wineglass Bay and east coast guide has more ideas. Explore the day, then check availability.
