Book Accommodation 
Australia's third-oldest settlement after Sydney and Hobart and has a rich maritime past and industrial present.
Surrounded by vineyards, orchards, berry and lavender farms, George Town has a long maritime history and many stories to tell. You can explore the town's history at the Old Watch House museum, the former local lockup that's now an information centre and craft shop. While there, pick up a copy of the George Town Heritage Trail for a self-guided walk around the town's historic sites.
If you have more time then hire a bicycle and ride to nearby Low Head Pilot Station along a 4 km scenic coastal path. Built by convicts in 1805 to guide ships into the Tamar River, the station has the oldest group of pilot buildings in Australia and like the Pilot Station lighthouse, still operates today. The maritime history of the region is captured at the Bass and Flinders Centre.
Also nearby is Low Head Coastal Reserve, a popular spot to watch the world's smallest penguins waddle in from the sea each night.
