Hobart in 72 Hours: Art, Eats & Epic Views!
📅 Itinerary
Day1: Arrived in Hobart at night and enjoyed dinner at Wrest Point’s Broadwalk Bistro—delicious food and a great way to settle in. Ended the evening with cocktails at the Birdcage Bar, which set the tone for a fun trip!
Day2: Started the day with coffee at Rosie in My Midnight Dreams (right above the ferry dock—super convenient!). Took the ferry to MONA and spent hours exploring the incredible art. Dinner was at Bar Wa Izakaya—absolutely delicious, with friendly service (just note, some dishes take a bit longer, so don’t go if you’re in a rush).
After dinner, I headed out to Port Arthur for the Ghost Tour—spooky, fascinating, and a highlight of my trip! To wind down, I checked out the Green Room Bar at Wrest Point (which was pretty quiet for a Saturday night), then moved to the Birdcage Bar where the live music and vibrant atmosphere made for a perfect end to the night.
Day3: Breakfast at Waterline Brooke Street Pier Lounge Bar & Eatery was a treat—gorgeous bay views, delicious food, and perfect coffee. After breakfast, I explored Salamanca Market and found the perfect souvenir to remember my trip—a true local treasure! Finished the trip with a drive up to Mount Wellington, where the panoramic views above the clouds absolutely blew my mind. You have to see it to believe
