Wineglass Bay is part of the Freycinet Peninsula, an outcrop of wild, pristine coastland on Tasmania's east coast. Encompassed within the Freycinet National Park, it is considered one of the world’s top ten beaches. Nestled in the iconic Hazards range and bordered with pink granite peaks, Wineglass Bay is the most photographed view in the entirety of our island state.

Wineglass Bay Estate is located on the picturesque waterfront of Moulting Lagoon - a vast wetland of exceptional natural beauty situated at the northern tip of Great Oyster Bay, on Tasmania's stunning East Coast. This wetland is renowned for its rare and significant collection of wetland plants and animals, supporting an abundance of aquatic species and waterfowl.

  • The lagoon usually supports at least 8000 black swans, about 80% of Tasmania’s estimated breeding population. It is an important site for many Tasmanian waterfowl and shorebirds at different times of the year, including ducks, egrets, plovers, grebes and cormorants. The lagoon is also important to migratory shorebirds that escape the harsh northern winter by coming here, and you may see many wonderful international visitors here over the summer.


Activities

  • Set on the lagoon’s edge, the estate fronts an internationally recognised wetland home to more than 8000 black swans, with sunsets and birdlife unfolding from every deck.

  • Bicheno is just 30 minutes from Wineglass Bay Estate, a laid-back coastal town known for penguins, fresh seafood and ocean swims.

  • A sheltered bay perfect for swimming or picnicking, this tranquil spot is surrounded by cliffs and calm water. At sunset, the Hazards glow pink above the bay, one of Freycinet’s most memorable sights.

  • Friendly Beaches offers endless stretches of white sand and crystal-clear water. Pack a picnic and spend the day soaking up the peace and quiet, with plenty of space to swim, stroll or simply sit back and take in the stunning coastal views.
