Winter is a magical time to visit East Coast Tasmania. It’s a little bit quieter, the sun sits low in the sky, and you can often find yourself standing on one of Australia’s best beaches completely alone. This time of year is perfect for fireside wines, long lunches, brisk walks, and clear skies. It’s your chance to live like a local.

The short answer: you can see all that Bicheno has to offer in 2 days but we recommend at least 3 days to really immerse in this magical place. If, like many travellers, you are using your Bicheno accommodation as a base to explore up and down the east coast, consider 5 days in Bicheno.
