Bicheno is a pretty fishing town, with a busy harbour where you can buy fresh fish. There are also some great beaches around the town, and diving is also popular.
There are some fantastic lookouts around the town including Freycinet Lookout and Whalers Lookout. There are also great views from the 3km Foreshore Walk, which starts at Redhill Point and continues to the blowhole. It is also worth heading north to the Douglas-Aspley National Park and the beautiful Aspley Gorge. The park hosts wonderful waterfalls, plenty of wildlife and a eucalypt forest. You can also see animals at the East Coast Birdlife and Animal Park and the Sea Life Centre.
There are plenty of things you can do and several tours which you can take around Bicheno. These include fishing charters, boat trips, and the wonderful fairy penguin tours.
