That's awesome! There are some pros and cons to the proposed routes. From a pure driving perspective, that's perfect. The vast majority of the area covered is waaaay out in the middle of nowhere (Good for driving/cops. Bad for attractions. Potentially bad for fuel availability). The east coast is hugely more populated and a lot more to do, but obviously not as good as the west purely from a driving perspective, for the same reason. Anywhere around the west/central area would be a reeeeally expensive place for anyone to break down if it required a tow. Personally, I'd go Devonport-Burnie-Queenstown-Hobart in 1 less day than proposed if possible, which would buy you another day to take your time in Hobart and/or going back up via east coast (because the highway from Hobart to Devonport is boring AF).

Any ideas for stops along the east coast? Looks like the drive along the coast could easily fit in one day.

Mostly driving but will be stopping at scenic spots and attractions along the way.
Opportunities for photos and stuff, might bring along some food so we can do some bbqs as well.

Alright, so we are happy with the dates and seems like we have enough interest for a trip.
We are looking to book asap, deadline will be 1st of Oct for ferry bookings. Will be organising the accommodation and stopoffs in the next couple weeks or so.
