Arts & Culture
Mona is the playground and megaphone of David Walsh, who grew up in Tassie.
You can spend half a day or a full day at Mona. Treat yourself and have lunch at the Museum Cafe or a wine at Moorilla winery.
We personally enjoy Dark Mofo which is our winter festival which is held in June. darkmofo.net.au

Favorite Wildlife Sanctuary
A MUST DO. This is the best wildlife sanctuary I've visited. Upon entry you recieve a complimentary bag of kangaroo food. The roos roam free within the Sanctuary and are always keen for a good scratch on the chest and gentle hand feeding. Allow an hour or two to wander around the Sanctuary. There are guided daily tours along with behind-the-scenes experiences.
