You wont need 7-10 days in tasmania, 3 or 4 would be enough i think. Depends, if you like scenic driving in cold conditions ( ok maybe not really cold for you ), and quiet little towns, sure. But you may find it a little, boring. Sorry to all taswegians!. Other than that there should be some nice south swells that time of year, fingers crossed. Good luck
If you need info about Brisbane or surrounds let me know. I’ve met Tom a couple of times and have one of his alaia boards which I hope to get to use a bit more when I have a couple of weeks off. Not sure what I’m doing after beginning of March as I start a new job, which may involve some travel.
With time frame and stuff - Brisbane might not be viable. Its all very spur of the moment.
I think my choice is fly Perth to Brisbane direct, or take a train/bus voyage across the centre via Ayers Rock, it will be one or the other this time out
When in Perth would recommend heading down to Margaret river for a few days, great surf, nice place. The bus trip across the center, wouldn’t do that. Theres a lot of nothing between sites!! If you wanted to see Ayres Rock I’d fly to Alice Springs. If you are up at Dampier you will get a good idea of the countryside and I’d suggest you will be over it by the time you start the bus trip.
