Flowerdale Lobster Haven
When you reach the highway, turn left down the hill then turn right
at the Flowerdale turn off and drive 2.5 km.
Open Feb to May, the Flowerdale Lobster Haven is the home of the
giant freshwater crayfish, unique to the streams of northern Tasmania.
See this gentle monster in nursery streams and several in-ground viewing
ponds. Individuals of over 5 kg in weight and over 80 cm long have been
known in the past, but now, even individuals over 2 kg are rare.
Set on a landscaped hillside overlooking Flowerdale River Valley, the
Haven features a waterfall & many manferns. Enjoy a rest and a cuppa in
the tearoom, featuring some favourite dishes made from the sherries
grown in the proprietor's famous orchard.
