Welcome to Tasmania's Central Coast
Whether you’ve just moved here, or you grew here, on behalf of our community I’d like to warmly welcome you to your new home on Tasmania’s Central Coast.
Ours is a special place – beautiful, welcoming and full of community spirit. From our stunning coastline and open spaces to our vibrant towns and local events, there are so many ways to enjoy life here.
To help you settle in, we’ve put together a New Resident Kit with useful information about local services, facilities and ways to connect with Council and the community.
We’re proud to call this place home, and we’re delighted that you do too.
