Choose tranquility or choose adventure. Flinders Island offers both in equal measure.

Select from countless deserted beaches for swimming, snorkelling and beachcombing.

Bushwalkers are also spoilt for choice, with dozens of excellent coastal trails and mountain hikes of varying degrees of difficulty.

Game fishermen and amateur anglers will find superb fishing from shore or by boat, with plentiful flathead, calamari and salmon, as well as larger game fish including shark, tuna, kingfish and marlin.

The more adventurous may take on rockclimbing at the renowned Killiecrankie crags, diving, kayaking, surfing or cycling.

Or simply relax and rejuvenate with a lazy day at the beach, followed by a barbecue and a magical sunset on the deck at Lemana.

Birdwatchers, photographers and nature enthusiasts will be enthralled by the abundant native flora and wildlife. Watch from the shore for dolphins, seals and the magnificent sea eagles. Become acquainted with the friendly local possums, wombats and wallabies.

Take a boat tour or a sailing trip around the many nearby uninhabited islands. Keen golfers can enjoy a round at Whitemark’s picturesque 9-hole golf course.

Dine on superb fish, crayfish and abalone freshly caught from the ocean, as well as local game meats and prime lamb and beef from the Island’s pastures. Sample award-winning Tasmanian wines, cheeses and other produce.

Flinders Island offers unforgettable experiences in every season. In winter, curl up in front of the wood-fired heater and watch nature’s drama unfold as storm clouds roll in across the bay and wild swells pound the coastal cliffs.
