Must Do's
Tasmania's fabulous east coast is located at Bicheno's doorstep. Enjoy accessible short or long walks and marvel at an abundance of flora and fauna. Stand in awe of proud eucalypts rising above a carpet of growth, rich in diversity. Enjoy an Aussie barbecue, an evening cocktail while relaxing in the bar and lounge area or if feeling more energetic head to the outdoor heated swimming pool, tennis court, video games or table tennis room.
While staying at Diamond Island, it is recommended to participate in the evening Penguin Experience. Little Penguins come ashore each night after a day in the ocean and can be seen in the wild by joining the tour. You should reserve your place for the Penguin viewing when checking in.
Diamond Island Resort offers easy access to experience - adventure, beach activities, fishing, nature based excursions, relaxation and romance activities or rural, country and wildlife encounters.
