How to Get in

Launceston Tamar Valley is made for exciting yourself - in exploration, romance and adventure, by land, air, river or sea. It is just a 45-minute flight or a soothing overnight cruise from Melbourne, and a 95-minute flight from Sydney. There are four daily flights from Melbourne during the week and two on weekends.

Flights connect with other major centres. Bass Strait is the sea-road to Tasmania. Spirit of Tasmania I and II cruise regularly from Port Melbourne (Victoria) to Devonport (Tasmania) all year round. There is a sailing every night in both directions and, during high demand periods, daytime sailings as well. Both ships are vehicular ferries, so you can bring your car and/or caravan, or motorbike. Devonport is 95 kms from Launceston and can be reached in about an hour
