Emergency Services
The emergency telephone number in Tasmania is 000. In case of emergency, do not call any other number, dial 000 immediately and you will be connected to the emergency service you require.
TasALERT
TasALERT is the emergency warning and information system in our State. In the event of a major emergency, it will provide a single source of clear and consistent emergency and resilience information.
Waterways
Tasmania is blessed with plenty of coastline – and most of us choose to live by the water. Whether it’s our highland lakes, wild rivers or rugged coastlines, when you’re enjoying these areas it’s important to be vigilant. We want you to enjoy our spectacular waterways, but always with care. To learn more about waterway safety in Tasmania, check out the MAST website.
Bushfires
While serious bushfire events are few and far between, they can spring up quickly in the summer months. Travellers should check the TAS Fire Service or TasALERT websites. Tune in to ABC Local Radio for information about bushfires and carefully note instructions.
