Battery Point

Hobart

A street lined with red brick buildings, a white picket fence, and a sign for 'The Circus Dragonfly'.
A row of buildings with signs for 'Pollen Tea Room' and 'Caravan'.
A white house with blue shutters, a white picket fence, and a red flower bed.
A white building with a blue fence, a tree with yellow leaves, and a person sitting on the sidewalk.
A quaint white house with a picket fence, a red car parked in the driveway, and a tree with autumn leaves in the foreground.
Take it easy in Battery Point, where a maze of narrow laneways will reveal quaint cafés and galleries to intrepid wanderers.

Pick a path through the waterfront alleys to find a jumble of 19th-century cottages that huddle against the sea breeze like wharfies lining up at the docks. Working-class history is etched into this neighbourhood’s heritage architecture. Visit one of its revered bakeries and you might want to leave a trail of crumbs for your return journey. The glamorous strip of Salamanca Place will lure any bon vivant with its artisans’ markets, providores and award-winning restaurants.
