Wynyard is a charming rural township at the mouth of the Inglis River, set in a landscape of rolling hills and a patchwork of fields, dairy farms and commercial tulip and rhododendron gardens. The area's harvest is celebrated at the Wynyard Tulip Festival in early October each year. Just a 15-minute drive from the distinctive Table Cape coastal landmark, Wynyard is also the location of the north-west coast's major airport.
In its early days, Wynyard was a booming timber town and its milling heritage is displayed in the predominance of elegant timber homes. This part of
Tasmania is a major fishing area and the waters around the town are popular with divers.
