Freycinet, a National park, is a magical place that occupies most of the Freycinet Peninsula. Magical because it houses pink granite mountains and the sight of those mountains is completely awe-inspiring. Other reasons as to why the national park is a tourist hot-spot are the white sandy beaches, abundant birdlife and a secluded bay. The secluded Wineglass Bay is voted by numerous authorities as one of the world's ten best beaches. It is a perfectly shaped bay and owes its name to its blood-stained sands caused from the whaling operations in the bay. The beautiful beaches, like the Friendly Beaches, Honeymoon Bay and Sleepy Bay, with their pristine clear waters and abundant marine life also offer water sports like swimming, kayaking, diving and snorkeling. You can also explore the different regions on foot. As far as stay options go, you have both BnBs and comfortable family-friendly holiday houses.
