Das Eigentum — Comfort Inn Devonport
A reliable, no-frills base for travellers passing through Devonport. The lobby is clean and functional, with a check-in desk that feels efficient rather than warm. It suits those prioritising budget and location over character: think handy to the Spirit of Tasmania terminal and town centre, but with predictable motel-style comforts.
Chroniken von Devonport
Devonport emerged as a port town in the 1850s, merging the settlements of Torquay and Formby. Its Victorian and Federation-era buildings along the Mersey River reflect a prosperous shipping past. Today, it's the gateway to Tasmania's North-West, with a working harbour, a revived arts scene at the paranaple centre, and a quiet pride in its maritime heritage.

Top-Attraktionen in Devonport
💡 Pop into the gift shop for affordable prints and ceramics by Tasmanian makers. Free guided tour if you ask at the desk on a quiet weekday.
💡 The Japanese garden section behind the main greenhouse is usually empty. Bring bird seed – the ducks and black swans come right up to the water's edge.
💡 Walk south from the lighthouse at low tide to find small rockpools with sea anemones and crabs. Best light is early morning for photos.
💡 The walking track behind the centre leads to a viewing platform overlooking the coast. Allow 20 minutes for the loop. No photography of the rock engravings inside.
💡 Buy a combined ticket for the train ride and museum entry – it's cheaper. Weekday mornings are quietest; weekends can have volunteer-run specials.
