They are currently "enjoying" themselves at Lagoon Beach on the Deat Coast.
Now, in the right circumstances this is a magic place.
Ma, lamented on the weather?
It would appear that she was giving information that the best time to visit Tasmania was from December to March.
For those contemplating visiting this state, I can confirm that December and until mid January is still very unsettled weather and it has been known to snow on Christmas Day.
The best time to visit Tasmania for settled weather is from late January thru to Easter. For the very best weather try, Feb/March.
Look forward to catching up with Ma when they get down south.
Our visit to Tasmania was from the end of Jan to mid-March and we had really beautiful weather. (Except for the rain on Cradle Mountain of course!) The only problem is that because its the best season its very crowded, like everywhere else in the best season for that area.
As a Tasmanian at heart but touring the big Island for the next 5 years or so I would agree that the best time for settled weather (normally) is between mid Jan to mid April, usually Easter as it starts to show signs of the approaching winter. My favorite season in Tassie is Autumn as I menioned previously is the most settled but as it is in any part of Australia now, I think normal weather is a thing of the past. If you do go down south to the little Island don't just stick to the tourist spots there is plenty to see and enjoy the way Cheryl & I do by going off the beaten track which I guess is the same were ever you go.

I can vouch about Feb being the best time............. Growing up in Launceston the weather always got good when we went back to school after the holidays. Now to reignite the old North/South rivalry. The north of the state always has better weather than the south. I remember a few years ago I was living in Hobart it snowed on Mt Wellington on New Years eve

Weather may be milder, but there are more rednecks in the North (or at least the North West)........
