Arthur River

Arthur River, located on Tasmania's rugged west coast, is a serene township nestled at the mouth of the wild Arthur River. Surrounded by dense rainforest, it serves as a gateway to the Tarkine wilderness, Australia's largest tract of temperate rainforest. Visitors can embark on river cruises through untouched forests, home to ancient blackwood, myrtle, and Huon pine. The area is also renowned for its pristine beaches, ideal for surfing, fishing, and four-wheel driving. Gardiner Point, aptly named "The Edge of the World," offers breathtaking coastal views where the Southern Ocean meets the land. With a population of around 32, Arthur River provides a tranquil retreat for nature enthusiasts seeking adventure and solitude.
