Monday, December 24th
Port Arthur and the Tasman Peninsula

Today we visited the Tasman Peninsula. Our first stop, about an hour from Hobart, was the Tessellated Pavement.

We then made the short drive to Tasmans Arch and Devils Kitchen.

From there, we drove on to Port Arthur Historic Site - a well-preserved old convict site. A boat tour and guided walking tour are included in the price of admission, and we did both.
