To the Edge of The World and back.

After leaving Stanley we drove to The Edge of The World. Its a little point on the west coast of Tasmania, near the Arthur River.



Lovely views out to sea, and lots of waves rolling in onto the beach, just what we like watching! 

  

  
  
  
  

On our way back we stopped at Dismal Swamp in the Tarkine Forest for lunch. From the information the ranger there gave us its a pretty unique place - one of the largest sink holes around.


If feeling adventurous there is a big slide to get into the the forest (we gave this a miss though...maybe next time if we get back up that way!). We just went out on the cantilevered platform to have a look.


This was the view looking down from the platform - looked a bit like NZ bush with all the ferns!


Our last sight seeing stop on the way home was the Table Cape Tulip Farm as we had heard that their fields of tulips should be in bloom by now. Not the peak of their flowering season but still a good sight - enough to imagine how impressive it would be at the blooming peak.

  
  
  
 Very pretty :)
