FIVE STAR ACCOMMODATION
ST HELENS |
St Helen's is located at the
western side of Georges Bay at the southern end of The Bay of Fires. St
Helen's is the largest town on the East Coast of Tasmania. There is an
abundance of good quality accommodation and award winning restaurants in the
area. Many adventure tours operate from here. Being a fishing port,
fresh fish is in plentiful supply. The town hosts many events including
the Suncoast Jazz festival during the last week in June every year. The image on
