Freycinet National Park is a national park on the east coast of Tasmania (Australia), 125 km northeast of Hobart. It occupies a large part of the Freycinet Peninsula, which was named after French navigator Louis de Freycinet. The closest town to the national park is that of Coles Bay, though the largest close town is Swansea. Freycinet contains part of the rugged Tasmanian coastline and includes the secluded Wineglass Bay, voted by several travel authorities as one of the world's ten best beaches.
