Completed the Three Capes Track with a group of friends - what an amazing adventure - stunning scenery - excellent accommodation and cooking facilities.. very surprised by the cabins and cooking areas that have been built. The rangers chat each night was very educational and a highlight to the coming day. Not a hike to complete in warm weather as some of the track is in full sun with no option of shade...

We spent a morning visiting the various sites at Port Arthur. We had a guided tour with a fantastic guide who was able to explain the history of the various site in great detail. Well worth a visit and we could have spent longer at the site. The boat trip gives a great view of the whole Port Arthur site.

Not really a cave’s person but this blew me away. Involves a number of steps to walk down and retreat from the site but definitely worth the effort. This geological phenomenon takes you to a viewing platform at the rear of the cave and depending on the tide the cave will either be empty providing magical views of the ocean on a sunny day or will be filled with water at high tide. At low tide it is possible to climb down and walk through to the beach, though caution is required.

We only had time to venture to Crescent Bay and return but found this to be a great experience with some very impressive and rugged coastal scenery along the way. The track is very well prepared and maintained and the relatively easy walk to the scenic beach and impressive sand dunes at Crescent Bay are well worth the modest effort.
