Tasmania’s Northwest encapsulates the best of the island – classic coastal drives, spectacular national parks, gorgeous nature reserves, scrumptious food trails, modern art and ancient cultural heritage. The busy coastal city of Davenport is the gateway that opens up to coasts, rivers, mountains and wilderness, including the iconic Cradle Mountain and Tarkine, the world’s largest expanse of cool temperate rainforest.

Devonport and North-West Tasmania, also known as the Cradle Coast Region, encompasses an area of nearly 23,000 square kilometres and comprises of the cities and the surrounds of Devonport, Burnie, Ulverstone, Smithton, Sheffield, King Island, Latrobe, Waratah-Wynyard and Zeehan. Most of the population of 111,566 is concentrated in the towns and cities along the coastal strip between Wynyard and Latrobe, while the rest reside in the many towns and smaller villages.

The rich red soils and ideal growing conditions here drive agriculture, forestry, fishing and their related manufacturing activities. This, along with tourism-related activities and some mining are the region’s economic drivers. Fresh vegetables, dairy products, wines, whiskey and gastronomic delights make for the ultimate paddock to plate experience for visitors.

The best way to get around is by car, the highway and a maze of side roads crisscross the area. The main population centres are serviced by local bus networks. Flights connect Burnie and Devonport to Melbourne. But the most scenic and popular way to travel into Devonport is by the Spirit of Tasmania ferry from Melbourne. Tasmania’s North West is a great place for touring and offers spectacular sceneries at every turn, from the prettiest coastal towns to breathtaking river, mountain and ocean views.
