Relax and unwind at Freycinet and Coles Bay, Australia

Freycinet and Coles Bay


Want to have a chance of seeing an eagle fly high in the sky? Or revel in pure crystal clear water and white sandy beaches? Then, Freycinet and Coles Bay is your perfect holiday retreat.

Beneath pink mountains, there is a village on the eastern side of Coles Bay. It forms the entrance to the Freycinet National Park. You can walk up there following a steep and well-assigned route. But, it is worth it. You will reach Wineglass Bay Lookout which gives you a beautiful view of the surroundings. This park has clean beaches, coastal dunes and dry eucalypt forests.

Wineglass Bay at Freycinet and Coles Bay is a delight with its sandy beaches and pure turquoise waters. It is a joy for swimmers and scuba divers. Kayaking is also an option here. Climbers and walkers will find the Hazard Range a challenge. Walking along the coastal beach and enjoying the beautiful view is another way to cherish your holiday.

If you are lucky, you will be able to see a white-bellied eagle gliding majestically. There are also large Australian gannets that dive for food here. Bird lovers would be thrilled by small nectar-feeding birds like eastern spinebills, yellow-throated or crescent honeyeaters and yellow-tailed black cockatoos. Normally, they fly and feed in noisy groups. You won‘t miss them during your holiday!

Outside the park on the Coles Bay road, there is an internationally important wetland called the Moulting Lagoon Game Reserve for you to see. Later, stop by Freycinet Marine Farm for a tour of the farm before sitting down to eat fresh oysters caught straight from the water. Maybe, you can help to catch them!

Visiting Freycinet and Coles Bay would make a truly memorable holiday!
