East Coast Tasmania is a loosely defined geographic region on the eastern seaboard of the island state of Tasmania, Australia. Stretching from the southern approaches of Cockle Creek and Bruny Island in the south to the remote Bay of Fires in the northeast, the region is known for its coastal beauty, national parks, and historic settlements. It is one of Tasmania’s most visited areas, popular for its mild climate, beaches, fishing, wineries, and bushwalking.
