An idyllic place to enjoy adventures along the waterfront, Hobart is home to attractions such as Sullivan’s Cove which one can explore. If you are in search of Hobart accommodation within easy reach of this attraction and other places of interest by the waterfront, then consider Somerset on the Pier Hobart which makes an ideal base in the city.
Located on the Derwent River’s western shore, Sullivan’s Cove is a well known waterfront district that has historical value as well since it was the first site that was settled in by the Europeans way back in the early 1800’s. Situated near the city’s Central Business District, this area today features a mix of the past and present including historical buildings that help one go back in time as it were and imagine how it must have been in days of old. The area is used as the city’s main port and as a result one can see various vessels berthing here too.
As you head off on your adventures exploring Sullivan’s Cove, look to soak up the enchanting atmosphere and enjoy the laidback charm of this area. Used to host the 2013 Australian Wooden Boat Festival, Sullivan’s Cove is also where one will find the School of the Arts building of the University of Tasmania. As you walk around the area make sure to visit the fascinating Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) which is a favourite amongst art lovers, while those visiting on a Saturday can head to the Salamanca Market which is also close by.
