CHOOSE WEST COAST

The West Coast Council area is located in western Tasmania, about 270 kilometres south-west of the Launceston CBD.

The region is celebrated for its tourism, mining and fishing. The clean air, mild climate and strong commitment to community make the West Coast a fantastic and unique place to be. The West Coast also provides a popular choice for people seeking a ‘sea change’, and those seeking work within the tourism, aquaculture and mining industries.
