The Tasmanian coastline south of Hobart holds many offshore islands, deep inlets, bays and beaches, with tiny fishing towns scattered along the coast roads. On the mainland, just opposite South Bruny Island, is Strathblane, set on the A6 road running south from Hobart. The tiny town is an outdoor enthusiast's dream destination, with activities ranging from kayaking to mountain biking. Also offered are sailing, fishing, exploring protected inlets and rivers by boat and for experienced sea-kayakers, visiting rugged uninhabited offshore islands, coves and caves along the rocky coastline. Guests at Strathblane hotels are sure of enjoying a remote, unspoilt destination that is well off the busy Tasmanian tourist trail. For even more remoteness, wilderness lodges can be rented. A kayaking or rowboat trip along the Esperance River brings you to superb fishing sites, praised by Australia's premier fishing magazine and surrounded by pristine wilderness that is full of bird species, Tasmania's indigenous fauna and a plethora of flora.
