So many old boats as well as new ones. Wander around the docks. Read the information boards about the history of Hobart. Fascinating! (Good waterfront spots to eat out here as well)

Our magnificent Tasman Bridge is best seen either from lookout points along Montagu Bay or Lindisfarne, or from the Queens Domain Cenotaph, often called the Regatta Grounds.

Check out Tasmania's convict history. You will need a full day to do this justice, but very worthwhile! (The tickets permit entry for two consecutive days.) Entry fee gives you a guided walking tour and a harbour cruise. Allow at least 1.5 hours to drive there. http://portarthur.org.au/

A must-see destination when you visit Hobart. Free entry. Take warm clothes - it is always freezing! It can snow any time of year, so you just never know your luck. Magnificent views of Hobart and surrounds. Walking tracks and nature trails. During winter with heavy snowfalls, the road is sometimes closed to traffic at certain points, so check before you go. http://www.hobartcity.com.au/Recreation/kunanyi_Mount_Wellington/Pinnacle_Road_Status

This is the local meeting place for a good daytime meal, as well as into the evening. Walk the beach then have a cuppa! (or and ice cream or a pizza). Indoor and outdoor seating. Stunning view across the river.

Shopping

Every Saturday morning this place is packed! Go early to avoid the crowds. Most food stalls and local produce is sold down the lower end. As you get closer to Davey St there is a greater variety of local goods and quality items for sale. Parking is always a premium, but if you drive around you can generally find something not too far away. Buskers!
