Hobart - The Salamanca Market is located at historic Salamanca
Place, next to the Hobart waterfront and with over 300 stallholders
it's an experience that's hard to beat. Salamanca Market is one
of Australia�s most vibrant and loved outdoor markets. It's a new
adventure every Saturday. The Salamanca Market is located at historic
Salamanca Place, next to the Hobart waterfront and with over 300
stallholders it�s an experience that�s hard to beat. The Salamanca
Market operates every Saturday 8:30 am to 3:00 pm, except for Christmas

entry fee, making it free to enjoy. Tasmanian producers and designers
make Salamanca Market memorable and unique. Tasmania's biggest selection

Hobart - Board a ferry at Hobart's Brooke Street Pier and
sail upstream to the daring Museum of Old and New Art, or MONA.
Australia's largest privately owned museum is cut into sandstone
cliffs in the northern suburbs, with an art collection as eclectic
as it is provocative. The food might almost qualify as art at MONA's
onsite restaurant, Source. Directly beneath the restaurant is the
cellar door for MONA's Moorilla winery, with wines produced from
the vineyards that adjoin the gallery. Be sure to try MONA's Moo
Brew beer range while here also.
Hobart - Climb Mount Wellington - Take a 30-minute drive
from the city centre to reach the summit of Mount Wellington, almost
1300 metres (4265 feet) above the city. The view of Hobart and its
surrounds is exceptional. Grab a coffee halfway up the mountain
at the Bentwood Coffee caravan, and make a stop at Australia's oldest
brewery, Cascade, on the way back down.
Hobart - Whiskey bars and craft beer - Get a taste of Tasmania's
burgeoning whisky industry at the cosy Lark Distillery, where distillery
tours are available, and the classy Nant Distillery. The award-winning
Sullivans Cove Whisky is in Cambridge, near Hobart Airport. For
a craft beer at the source, pull up a stool at the central Shambles
Brewery or the Hobart Brewing Company.
Hobart - Wander the waterfront - Hobart truly shines along
its beautiful working waterfront. From the old sandstone warehouses
of Salamanca Place a stroll along the docks will take you past the
floating Brooke Street Pier and a replica of Australian explorer
Douglas Mawson's huts in Antarctica. Every year, in the week after
Christmas, the docks fill with yachts from the classic Sydney to
Hobart Yacht Race.
Hobart - Kayak to fish and chips - Hobart's main waterfront
area, Constitution Dock, is lined with fish punts selling seafood,
and the best way to arrive for some food is by kayak. Roaring 40s
Kayaking runs a half-day Hobart City trip that will have you paddling
along the edge of the city's most historic suburb, Battery Point,
and into the docks for a floating fish-and-chip experience.
Hobart - Visit Hobart's convict sites - Tasmania's most
famous convict penitentiary, Port Arthur, is just 90 minutes drive
from Hobart, but you can find traces of the state's convict past
without even leaving the city. In South Hobart, near the Cascade
Brewery, is the World Heritage-listed Cascades Female Factory, where
thousands of women were imprisoned. In the city centre take a tour
of the Tench prisoner barracks.
