Swansea

Swansea is located in the centre of Tasmania's east coast, on the northwest shore of Great Oyster Bay and overlooking Freycinet National Park. Swansea was the first municipality in Australia to be established after Hobart and Sydney and is home to colonies of short tailed shearwaters (muttonbirds) and fairy penguins.

The nearby Freycinet National Park has quolls, wallabies, possums and Tasmanian Devils. Offshore, there are dolphins, whales and seals.
