Tasmania offers an enviable lifestyle. It is the smallest Australian state, but it has all the services and facilities needed to make it a safe and relaxing home. Tasmanians are renowned for their friendliness.

Tasmania is Australia's island state, separated from the mainland by the 240km stretch of Bass Strait. Tasmania is roughly the size of Ireland.

Many Tasmanians enjoy the benefits of a city lifestyle, combined with easy access to beaches, rivers, lakes and national parks.

There are four major population centres - Hobart (the capital), Launceston, Burnie and Devonport.

Tasmania has a strong sporting tradition and a dynamic arts culture. There's always plenty to do. And you don't have to drive far to do it.

The state has four distinct seasons, with long summer days, a sunny autumn, fresh spring and brisk winter.
