Port Arthur Historic Site
This picturesque place has heaps to see and do, and includes a boat ferry around the ‘Isle of the Dead’. Your entry pass is valid for two days, so you’ll be glad you decided to stay overnight on the Peninsula, a single day here is just not enough.
Wondering what else to do?
The Tasman Peninsula is a well kept secret. Palmers Lookout, located on the hill behind Possum Beach Cottage is a great photo opportunity, and gives you a bearing for bush walking, picnics, swimming, fishing, sea kayaking, diving or rock climbing - some of the activities enjoyed by many in this abundant environmental area. For the golfers why not try 9 holes at the Point Puer Golf Course, only 2km down the road. It's a challenging experience with breathtaking coastal scenery.
Sea Cliff Coast –A Natural Wonder.
Some of the most stunning coastal scenery in Australia is to be found on the Tasman Peninsula. Awe inspiring is one term used to describe the huge columns of rock and granite that rise out of the ocean like great sentinels keeping watch over the waves.
Popular also are visits to the Remarkable Cave, only a five-minute drive from Possum Beach Cottage, and it’s less than 20 minutes to the natural rock formations of Devils Kitchen, Tasman Arch, Tasman Blowhole and the amazing Tessellated Pavement.
