Bicheno 

More photos   

Bicheno is located on the east coast, just north of the Freycinet Peninsula.

Sand, surf, sea and sun epitomise Bicheno, a pretty fishing town founded on the sea and its bounty. Nearby there’s the Governors Island Marine Reserve with fascinating underwater scenery and sealife. See it from a glass-bottomed boat or get right into it with some scuba equipment.

In the town there’s the Sea Life Centre, where creatures of the deep swim in huge glass tanks. The town is a centre for endless outdoor activity - fishing, sailing, golf, tennis and much more. After vigorous mornings spend relaxing afternoons at the East Coast Bird Life and Animal Park. Take a pre-dinner evening tour to watch penguins returning to their burrows for the night - unforgettable.
