We visited the Shot Tower cafe yesterday for morning tea. The last time was 17 years ago. Scones were just as good as we remembered! Try the date scones...they are the best ........but they do have other food too. Lovely staff in cafe and Shot Tower shop. If weather is good, there is pretty garden to sit in.

We had perfect weather for our late morning visit - clear air, sunny and no wind - could really see for miles! Great for photography. Fabulous views down the Derwent and over Hobart. Some say better than Mt Wellington as closer and lower at 340m elevation. We took bus No.347 from the CBD and enjoyed the views as passengers en route. Had nice coffees at the cafe, friendly barister and fabulous views from our outside table. Good, informative signage and photos of the history of the signals station. If the weather is perfect and you can spare an extra hour or so, stay for lunch and continue to enjoy the million dollar views, like we did! PS an alternative, excellent view point close to the CBD is the Rosny Park Lookout.

This place offers almost 360 degree of Hobart view. If you are self-driving tourists, it's worth coming by this place. Lots of parking space, and not many people. While Mt Wellington offers you spectacular view from high up, Rosny Hill lookout gives you a more down-to-earth perspective. Suggest to stop by Coles Eastland afterwards to buy some groceries for your trip.

It doesn't matter what time of day, sunny or inclement weather - Constitution Dock is part of the fabric of the city and draws locals and tourists alike. Surrounded by some wonderful bars, restaurants and the legendary fish & chip floating serveries and fabulous history, it is a must visit to soak in the ambience of the waterfront and dock area. It may be 2019, but very easy to step back 100 years and see it all before your eyes.

Walking from Battery Point to Salamanca Place, the easiest and coolest way is Kelly’s Steps. Built in 1839 they offer a shortcut plus a beautiful view of the waterfront.
