What landmarks and monuments can’t you miss in Devonport?
Spirit of the Sea
Overlooking the mouth of the Mersey River, the Spirit of the Sea is a striking five-metre high statue of Neptune, the Roman god of the sea. Cast from bronze, the 700kg statue is illuminated after dark, welcoming those arriving in Devonport by boat. Just a short walk from the Bass Strait Maritime Centre, the sculpture is best appreciated up close, where you can spot smaller details such as carefully sculpted shells and barnacles.
Mersey Bluff Lighthouse
Established in 1889, the Mersey Bluff Lighthouse is one of Devonport’s best known landmarks. Overlooking the Bass Strait, it’s the lighthouse’s unique vertical red and white stripes that set it apart. Although you may not be able to tour the interior of the lighthouse at this point in time, the spectacular ocean views offered by the surrounding Mersey Bluff make it well worth a visit following your cheap flights to Devonport. Be sure to spend some time soaking up the beautiful coastal scenery, keeping an eye out for the Spirit of Tasmania as it arrives and departs from the city, passing by the lighthouse.
