On Tasmania's mild and sunny northern coast, Port Sorell and neighbouring Shearwater, Hawley Beach and Squeaking Point form one of Tasmania's aquatic playgrounds, just minutes from the Devonport Airport, the Spirit of Tasmania terminal and the Devonport city centre. A sweep of beach; sheltered inlets; a seaside holiday haven - that's the welcome that awaits you at Port Sorell.
Explore foreshore and urban reserves, cycle, enjoy a round of golf or a game of tennis; wander kilometres of readily accessible foreshore tracks, or simply laze in the sun. Nearby Narawntapu National Park is best known for its abundance of Tasmanian wildlife, including Forester kangaroos.
Wildlife can also be viewed in bushland reserves at Port Sorell and Hawley Beach, and in the Port Sorell Conservation Area. Retrace the European history of Port Sorell dating from the early 19th Century in a self-guided walk (a brochure is available) before spending a night in a luxurious heritage property.
