Port Arthur is located about 100 km south-east of Hobart on the Tasman Peninsula.
By car, Port Arthur is a day trip from Hobart, although the Historic Site is quite large and it is good to plan at least 4–6 hours there. The roads between them is sealed and in reasonable condition, although much of the trip is on narrow country roads, not highways. Drivers from Hobart should take the Tasman Highway past Hobart airport to Sorrell and the Arthur Highway from Sorrell. The road is well signposted as "Port Arthur" from the airport onwards.
Bus tours of the Historic Site are available through:
Tasman Island Cruises departing Hobart at 8AM daily and returning 7PM (adults $85, children under $17 55, children under 3 free)
