1. Get Off The Grid As Soon As You Land
Like many places worth visiting, getting to Tasmania requires going the extra mile. From Singapore, I took a seven-hour Qantas flight to Melbourne, and after a seamless connection then another hour-long hop, I arrived in the island’s capital of Hobart. A two-and-a-half-hour drive northeast took me to Freycinet National Park, an unspoilt part of the world anchored by the mesmerising Hazards mountain range and the crystal clear waters of Coles Bay. Breathtaking landscapes are aplenty in Tasmania, and its burgeoning food and art scene credit its rise to the island's pristine surrounds.
