The north west coast of Tasmania extends from Port Sorell in the east to Cape Grim - the north-west tip of the state. Bass Highway follows it all the way from Devonport to Smithton, though it is possible to do sections of the journey on what is the old Bass Highway. These sections, which this drive follows, stick closer to the coast and therefore take much longer, but incorporate numerous stretches of scenic coastline that are missed by sticking to the highway.
