Northwest Tasmania is home to many little fairy penguins, and if you happen to be in Stanley just after dark, you may be able to spot them. They may be loud at night, hosting a penguin party, but they're often hidden beneath rocks. Remember, don't take flash photography or use a flashlight – it can blind their eyesight. If anything, use a red torch to avoid damaging their eyesight.
A relic of colonial architecture from the Regency Period. All day tours are self-guided, and the signs in the site are fairly informative.
The entry point of Stanley makes a good photo spot of The Nut.
