Experience the remote beauty of Maria Island on an active day tour combining coastal walks, convict history and abundant wildlife. Travel east from Hobart to the seaside town of Triabunna before crossing by ferry to Maria Island National Park. With no cars or roads, the island offers a peaceful escape where wildlife roams freely and time slows down. Explore the World Heritage listed Darlington Probation Station, one of the best preserved convict sites in Australia. Walk to the striking Painted Cliffs, where colourful sandstone patterns are revealed at low tide, then continue to the Fossil Cliffs, home to 300 million year old fossils and sweeping coastal views. Along the way, encounter wombats, wallabies, Cape Barren Geese and Tasmanian Devils, relax on quiet beaches, explore rock pools and take in the island's dramatic scenery. This active day tour is perfect for travellers seeking walking trails, history and raw Tasmanian wilderness in one unforgettable experience.
