The East Coast of Tasmania is superb. Yesterday we talked about Bay of Fires, a must-see area during a stay in Tasmania. Today, we stop in Coles Bay and we may say the same thing so you have been warned. This small town of fewer than 500 people is a little gem for tourists. There are breathtaking landscapes and beaches (one could easily believe to be in Bora Bora in some places). It is also the starting point for many outdoor activities which will be discussed tomorrow. Anecdotally, it is also one of the first cities in the world to have banned plastic shopping bags. If you are looking for a place to sleep, we found the dream B&B: Sheoaks on Freycinet! We do not know where to begin to describe our stay as there are so many highlights:
- The house: modern design, traditional exterior walls have been replaced by windows. The view of Great Oyster Bay is breathtaking. We love it!
- The food: breakfast cooked by Margaret, the hostess, is divine. The choice is wide and its ingredients are of exceptional quality. It is also possible to dine on site at night or order lunch. We highly recommend it.
- The rooms: large and the bed was extremely comfortable. The one we slept in even had its own bathroom.
- The hosts: extremely friendly. Etiquette and attention to detail are two concepts they combine wonderfully. They are also involved in the community and are an incredible source of information. Ask them about the area to make sure not to miss anything during your stay!
