About Hobart & Beyond

Hobart & Beyond is the consumer travel channel of Destination Southern Tasmania — the regional tourism organisation responsible for promoting southern Tasmania.

We’re the locals who tell Tasmania’s story, one photo, hike, beach shack, cellar door and festival at a time. From the city streets of Hobart to the quiet corners of the Central Highlands, we’re here to help you discover what makes this place so wildly special.

Whether you’re planning your first Tasmanian adventure or just looking to escape the everyday (even if it’s just for a weekend), you’re in the right place.

What We’re All About

Hobart & Beyond showcases the very best of Southern Tasmania — including Hobart, the Huon Valley, Bruny Island, the Tasman Peninsula, the Derwent Valley, the Central Highlands, and everything in between.

We create:

  • Travel guides, tips and inspiration grounded in real local knowledge

  • Blogs and stories that support our local tourism community

  • Content that encourages sustainable, meaningful travel

  • Beautiful visuals and honest words that make you want to pack your bags (or at least start a new browser tab)

Who’s Behind the Content?

Our stories are crafted by a small, local editorial team, led by Darren Wright, a digital content creator and photographer with deep roots in the Tasmanian tourism world.

We walk the walks, eat the oysters, drive the backroads, and get caught in the occasional sideways rainstorm — all in the name of getting the story right.

We’re not here to sell you the same tired travel clichés. We’re here to help you see southern Tasmania the way we do — wild, welcoming, and full of surprises.

Why Trust Us?

Because we live here. Because we care. And because we know the secret lookout that’s not on the signposted trail (but we might just tell you where it is).

Plus, we’re backed by Destination Southern Tasmania, the official regional tourism organisation for the south. That means our content is made with integrity, purpose, and love for the place we call home — not churned out by AI bots or scraped from second-hand sources.
