Set off the remote north-west tip of Tasmania, King Island rewards the short flight with windswept beaches, worldclass golf, famed local produce and quirky seaside villages.
King Island accommodation is mostly spread between the coastal hub of Currie on the west coast and the quieter east-coast communities at Grassy and Naracoopa. Expect private coastal retreats, off-grid eco cabins, cosy farm stays and town lodgings with a backdrop of wild coastline, lush farmland and big skies.
These King Island stays put you within easy reach of the island’s legendary surf, the rugged coastal attractions, the cheese, beef, seafood and whisky, and two golf courses ranked among Australia’s best. Not bad for a small Bass Strait island of around 1600 people.
