Backpackers Guide to Devonport |
If youre backpacking round Australia youre sure to land in Devonport.
It is a relaxing, quiet, seaside town, but still offers all of the amenities of a larger city. If you arent traveling to Devonport on the Spirit of Tasmania, you can get there on the Redline Coaches Bus service from Launceston or Hobart, with services running daily. If you do choose to travel on the Spirit of Tasmania to get to and from Tasmania, you can take your car on board for an extra fee, which will give you the luxury of being able to get around in a place where public transport is not the best (both in Devonport and throughout the state).
Hostels in Devonport are scattered throughout the central business district and East Devonport regions. The central business district is the best location for accommodations, as it is close to the shopping and restaurants.
For information on things to do in Devonport, go to the Visitors Centre down on Formby Road. There are different galleries, museums, aboriginal culture centres, old railway trains, and food and wine venues to visit within the region. If you are just after a day at the beach, then you can head town to the popular Devonport Bluff for the day. Nightlife in Devonport is mostly happening on the weekends with an array of different live bands and DJs at the venues in the central business district. It is a great place to relax and get involved in Tasmanian life and culture.
