Hobart’s beachside beauty is summed up in Sandy Bay. Cruise along the waterfront boulevard and check out the many faces of this neighbourhood.

The towering casino lords it over the sleek yachts in Sandy Bay’s marina, while the university campus keeps the local pubs packed. Go shopping at independent boutiques and antiques stores or pick up a bargain at Sandy Bay’s outlets. On sunny days, revellers from all over the city flock to the pretty little beaches notched into Sandy Bay’s coastline.
