Coles Bay
An enormously popular holiday spot, Coles Bay is the main settlement on the Freycinet Peninsula, situated at the base of the Hazards.
This is where you’ll find the National Park Visitor Centre, along with a sheltered family friendly beach, a range of tours and walking trails, and several small shops and restaurants. If you’re travelling with kids, pay a visit to The Ice Creamery, where you’ll find 24 flavours of Tasmanian-made ice cream. Will you play it safe with vanilla, or dare to try lavender, bubble-gum or mango?
