St Helens is the largest town in the north-east coast of Tasmania, located on Georges Bay. This scenic bayside town is approximately 165 kilometres east of Launceston and 265 kilometres from Hobart. Known as the game fishing capital of Tasmania, St Helen is surrounded by scenic white, pristine sand, making it a popular tourist destination for both keen anglers and those looking to relax and unwind.

Those visiting St Helens can find short-term parking on the Cnr of Tully St & Young Street. Stays are limited to 24 hours and are free of charge. Potable water and a dump point are also found here.

St Helens is the perfect base when exploring the north-coast. From town, you can explore stunning Binalong Bay and the Bay of Fires, which extends to Eddystone Point. The Bay of Fires is a scenic coast of white sandy beaches dotted with giant granite boulders. Or, a popular activity in town is the breathtaking, one hour return walk to St Helens Point where you will find spectacular Peron Dunes and a vast ocean beach.
