Swansea is a beautiful historic township located 134 kilometres from Hobart, 133 kilometres from Launceston and 67 kilometres from Campbell Town.
The first European to explore the Swansea area was a Captain Cox sailing the brig Mercury from England to Sydney Town. Numerous sailors passed through the bay over the next twenty years but it wasn't until the 1820s that Europeans settled in the district.
Today, Swansea has a lot to offer the visitor. There is plenty to do from fishing and surfing to exploring the historical buildings around the town.
