On the East Coast

The East Coast Escape – www.eastcoastescape.com.au

The East Coast Escape refers to the spectacular 252 kilometre coastal journey from the Bay of Fires, north of St Helens, to the spectacular Freycinet Peninsula and historical Maria Island in the south.

The East Coast is steeped in history with Aboriginal, British, French and Dutch influences. With such natural coastal beauty and an array of experiences, sightseeing and activities, a few days spent on the East Coast will only whet your appetite for more. Many people regret that they do not have enough time to enjoy what Freycinet Coast has to offer, so please plan enough time to relax and experience Freycinet.
