MARIA ISLAND
Wild beauty, rare wildlife and history in one extraordinary island.
Just across the bay lies one of Tasmania’s most extraordinary places — Maria Island, a UNESCO World Heritage–listed site.
Think towering sea cliffs, rare wildlife, convict ruins, and beaches straight out of a postcard. We highly recommend exploring Maria Island, and can help connect you with local operators like East Coast Cruises, who run incredible half-day and full-day boat tours showcasing the island’s cliffs, coves, and wildlife.
Prefer to go at your own pace? Catch the ferry across, wander the island on foot, or hire a bike and ride through landscapes where wombats graze and history lingers.
Whether you choose a guided cruise or a self-guided adventure, Maria Island is a must-do on Tasmania’s east coast.
