Devonport
Tasmania's third largest city, Devonport is the gateway to the
island state, situated as it is in the centre of the north coast,
at the mouth of the Mersey River. It is the point of arrival for
car ferries from the mainland and it also welcomes visitors at its
modern airport. The city is three hours by road from Hobart on the
Midlands Highway. The city has a number of attractions for
visitors, including aboriginal rock engravings, a maritime museum
and a cycle/walking track which extends around the picturesque
foreshore from the city past the Olympic Swimming Pool to the
historic Don River Railway, which operates vintage and steam
trains. The city's central location makes it an ideal base for
discovering the wilderness experiences of northwest Tasmania,
especially the Mt Cradle National Park.

Money
The Australian Dollar (AUD) is divided into 100 cents. Banks and
bureaux de change exchange most foreign currencies. Travellers
cheques are also welcome everywhere, but banks take a small
commission and it is better to take cheques in major currencies
(e.g. US dollars or Euros) to avoid additional charges. Credit
cards are widely accepted and ATMs are freely available throughout
the country. Banking hours are generally 9.30am to 4pm Monday to
Thursday, and 9.30am to 5pm on Friday, but some banks offer
extended hours and some are open on Saturday mornings.
