Bicheno, TAS

Bicheno is the first of three one-night stands that we have planned before we get to Cradle Mountain National Park.

My Lonely Planet guide describes Bicheno as “ … very much a fishing port — with a holiday habit.” The beaches and the deep sea fishing make the town quite popular with holidaymakers. For us, it’s just a convenient stop on the road.

Our hotel, Beachfront Bicheno, is nothing to speak of. The ambiance of the property is that of a motor lodge. The rooms, while clean, are in need of a good refresh. Across the road, we have a view of the beach and a balcony from which to enjoy said view. Unfortunately, it was way too windy for us to sit out for our evening wine and snacks.

Once we settled into our room, we wandered over to the beach to scramble over the boulders and watch the rough surf crashing ashore. One last bit of fun to wrap up our day.もっと詳しく
