| | Tasmania Vacations - Australia Vacations : Pleasant Holidays |
 | | Separated from mainland Australia by a 150-mile stretch of Bass Strait, Tasmania is a land apart - a place of beautiful, unspoiled landscapes, friendly, welcoming people, a pleasant, temperate climate, wonderful food and wine and a rich history. |
 | | Roughly the size of West Virginia, Tasmania is Australia's smallest state, with dramatic coastlines, rugged mountains, tall forests and sparkling highland lakes. |
 | | More than 30 percent of the state is reserved in a network of National Parks and the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area, a refuge and habitat for rare plants and animals, including survivors of the ancient southern super continent, Gondwana. |
