Devonport is widely known in Tasmania for the Spirit of Tasmania ferry terminal, the mainland link between the island and Geelong in Victoria. Positioned at the mouth of the Mersey River on Bass Strait, the city is a working port and a practical base for Tasmania’s north-west coast. The foreshore around the Mersey has promenades and beaches, while the Bass Strait Maritime Centre interprets the region’s seafaring connections. Nearby Home Hill, the former residence of Prime Minister Joseph Lyons and Dame Enid Lyons, preserves a chapter of Australian political history.
