Tucked among the trees at 📍Sisters Beach, we found a little place created for doing exactly what its name suggests.

Pause. 😁

A short pathway led us into the Sisters Beach Pause Place, where a seat sits beneath a beautiful metal canopy shaped like the surrounding paperbark trees.

At first glance, it looks like branches and leaves arching overhead. Look more closely and there are hidden creatures woven through the metalwork, including four wrens and two wren nests waiting to be found.

There were little pathways, timber seats and plenty of native plants surrounding this quiet community space. It felt less like a formal garden and more like a small pocket of bushland inviting people to slow down for a while.

We weren’t the only ones enjoying it either. A shy wallaby was tucked among the grasses, keeping a very careful eye on us through its leafy curtain. 🦘🌿

Sisters Beach had already given us beautiful coastal views, and now it had offered us a peaceful little place to stop and enjoy them.

By the time we reached 📍Sisters Beach, the late-afternoon light was doing something rather beautiful.

The wet carpark shimmered beneath the trees, with the sun breaking through just enough to pull us toward the beach for a closer look.

Down below, the creek curved gently across the sand before meeting the sea. Sunlight danced across the shallow water, the hills faded into the distance, and small clouds drifted above the coastline.

Every few steps seemed to change the scene. One moment the beach was glowing in soft golden light, and the next it felt cooler and moodier as shadows stretched across the water.

There was no grand plan or long walk. We simply wandered, took in the view and let the afternoon unfold around us.

A peaceful first look at Sisters Beach, delivered with a little extra sparkle from the sun. 😁

12 MONTHS IN TASMANIA! 🥳💚

Today marks a whole year since BerT and Doli rolled off the Spirit of Tasmania and our Tassie adventure began.

Our first camp was on a mate’s block at Penguin, and from there we simply started exploring.

We made our way across towards the North East through Sheffield, Liffey, Launceston, the Tamar Valley and Beaconsfield, eventually reaching Gladstone and beautiful Swimcart Beach.

From there we wandered back down through Pub in the Paddock to Griffen Park near Mathinna, where the weather helped make our next decision for us. 🤣 We turned west and began exploring the West Coast, slowly making our way north again into the North West.

And somewhere along the way, Tasmania stopped feeling like somewhere we were visiting and simply became home for a while. ❤️

We’ve camped beside beaches, rivers and forests, beneath mountains and under some spectacular Tassie skies. We’ve sat around plenty of campfires and made some wonderful friends for life along the way. 😃

There have been so many places, people and moments that we never could have imagined when we first rolled off that boat.

365 days later…

We’re still here. 🤣

And we’re still not finished. 😁

A few questions came up about our rain bucket and awning setup, so Brad thought it was time for a closer look. 😁💧🪣

Here’s how it works in the real world.

Before leaving 📍Boat Harbour, we stopped for one last look at the coastline.

The water was darker here, with waves moving around the rocky shoreline and sunlight sparkling across the surface. Out toward the horizon, clouds were gathering and a faint shower could be seen falling in the distance.

We even spotted what looked like a faint white rainbow beneath the clouds. 🌈

It was one of those views that made us linger for just a little longer before climbing back into BerT and heading on our way. 😁

Sometimes the view is almost enough to distract us from the food.

Almost. 🤣

At 📍Seekers Bar & Cafe, Boat Harbour Beach, we settled in overlooking the beautiful bay just as a rainbow stretched across the water.

Then our seafood basket arrived.

Loaded with seafood, golden chips, salad and dipping sauces, it looked impressive and tasted even better. We have enjoyed plenty of seafood baskets during our travels around Tasmania, but this one earned itself a special place in our adventure awards.

🏆 Best Seafood Basket

After lunch, we wandered outside to take in a little more of the beautiful scenery surrounding Boat Harbour Beach.

Beautiful food, a rainbow over the bay and one of Tasmania’s prettiest beaches right outside the door. Seekers certainly gave us a lunch to remember. 😁

After the colourful welcome beside the road, we stopped at the lookout to see 📍Boat Harbour from above.

There was only one view through the trees, so it wasn’t the clearest or most open lookout we have visited.

But somehow, the photos captured it beautifully. 😁

The branches framed the bay, the rooftops below showed just how high we were, and the rocky headland stretched quietly across the water.

It may have been only a small window between the trees, but it gave us a lovely first look at the coastline waiting below.

Sometimes the camera sees a view a little differently than we do. 📸🌿

Our first glimpse of 📍Boat Harbour was a wonderfully colourful one.

Beside the road stood a mosaic archway covered in fish and sea creatures, with a bright blue octopus bench tucked alongside it. It really made us stop and take a closer look. 😁

The pathway is dedicated to the memory of Murray Elphinstone OAM, and the marine theme continues through the mosaic artwork, from the archway and octopus bench to a beautiful mermaid seat complete with little seahorses.

Across the road, an old red truck added another quirky discovery to the collection, while BerT waited patiently beyond the bright yellow mosaic arch.

Before we had even seen Boat Harbour’s famous beach views, these colourful little details had already given us a taste of the character waiting to be discovered. 🐙🧜‍♀️

Tasmania keeps popping up with surprises when we least expect them. This was one of those, "Damn, we weren't ready for that!" moments. 🤣

We were travelling a bit too quickly to stop, but we managed to grab a quick snapshot through BerT's window as we drove past.

Wondering how it could be saved, with cropping not really the solution, it was AI to the rescue! 🤣

Then we spotted the boat's name...

SPIRIT OF HELL-YEH! 🤣

After checking out Hellyer, we spotted a huge ship being loaded offshore and pulled into the Port Latta Day Use Area for a closer look.

It wasn't the size of the ship that first caught our eye though, it was the water pouring from its side. Out came the camera, which also doubles as our best pair of binoculars.

After zooming in, we discovered the ship was the CYMONA OCEAN.

We got chatting to a nearby local fisherman, and he told us the iron ore being loaded comes from the Savage River Mine through a slurry pipeline before reaching Port Latta. We thought that was pretty amazing.
