The Horny Cray is located in the east coast village of Swansea, approximately 135km north-east of Hobart and approximately 154km south-east of Launceston.

While The Horny Cray may have a funny name, it takes its seafood very seriously.

The Horny Cray is known for its variety of fresh and cooked seafood. You can choose from fresh oysters, fresh crayfish rolls, curried scallop pies, seafood pizzas and lots more. The menu also features a number of non-seafood items as well. 

We often drop by for a quick seafood lunch whenever we're in the neighbourhood. It's located on the main street of Swansea and we usually don't have any trouble finding a parking spot big enough for the car and camper trailer/caravan.

This takeaway shop is busy year-round serving locals and tourists and it's easy to see why - the ingredients are fresh, locally sourced where possible and treated with respect. 

We love a box of mixed crumbed/battered seafood, so we always choose one packed with fish fillets, local scallops, prawns and calamari.

We've always found the fish fillets to be beautifully flaky and the scallops to be plump and juicy. 

The prawns and calamari are always tender and the crunch outer coating never disappoints.

We've also really enjoyed the crayfish rolls as well. The bread rolls are fresh and soft and the crayfish is sweet and juicy. The seafood sauce doesn't overpower the delicate cray flesh.

You can either sit outside the shop on the stools and bench, allowing you to tuck straight into your food, or you can take it across the road to the park or the beach - just watch those cheeky seagulls, they love The Horny Cray's food too!

  Drift Away Organic Shack is a peaceful retreat for two located in Police Point, approximately 73km south of Hobart. Ideal for a couple, this cute studio has stunning views of the Huon River. The shack is located on the owner's residential property, but as the main house is set well behind the shack, the house and its inhabitants go unnoticed. The idea with this shack is to relax - read a book, drink in the view, cook a meal on the outdoor fire pit or enjoy a relaxing bath in the...........drumroll.............outdoor tub. Or, of course, do all of the above! The bushland setting offers privacy and the local birdlife creates a gorgeous natural soundtrack. The shack itself has a double bed, small kitchenette with mini fridge, shower, couch, an outdoor setting for the deck, an outdoor setting near the fire pit and an outdoor bath. Jemma, the friendly and welcoming owner, provides freshly laid eggs from the resident hens, milk, tea, coffee, a selection of jams, vegemite, butter, a fre...

Crescent Bay, Mount Brown and Remarkable Cave

 Crescent Bay, Mount Brown and Remarkable Cave PUFF-O-METRE   THEN OVERVIEW This is a beautiful day walk that follows some rugged coast line, stunning views and ends at a gorgeous beach with huge dunes. It starts at a large carpark, but it needs to be as this area is a very popular location. The carpark has a lovely viewing platform for some of the coastal cliffs. It also has shelter and public toilets available. Before setting off towards Crescent Bay, it's worth the ten minute delay to head down the staircase to enjoy the view at the Remarkable Cave. It's a bit like a horizontal blowhole however it's far more open therefore you don't get the big burst of water upwards. With that done, it's time to head along the other track towards Crescent Bay. This track is a bit up and down however the elevation doesn't change more than 20m so at no stage does it feel overwhelming. The track is even wide/smooth enough to be able to take off-road prams to the beach. Along th...
