Tessellated Pavement State Reserve

The Tessellated Pavement State Reserve, located near Eaglehawk Neck on Tasmania's Tasman Peninsula, is renowned for its unique geological formation—a naturally tessellated rock platform that showcases the region's geological history. This formation is a result of natural processes that have created a grid-like pattern on the rock surface, making it a popular spot for photography and geological study.

Visitors can enjoy the scenic coastal views and explore the surrounding area, which is rich in natural beauty and wildlife. The reserve offers basic amenities, including picnic tables and parking facilities, making it suitable for short visits. However, there are no barbecue facilities, playgrounds, or shaded areas within the reserve.

Access to the Tessellated Pavement is free, and dogs are not permitted to roam off-leash in the area. The reserve is accessible via Tessellated Pavement Road, with the nearest suburb being Eaglehawk Neck.
