Delicious Australia mentions Hursey Seafoods in Stanley among the best regional restaurants in Tasmania.

Our coastal village is rich in fishing history and activity which is part of the reason that the seafood at Hursey Seafoods is not to be missed when staying with us in Stanley.

This is just fabulous! Well done Stanley!

Congratulations to Stanley, WINNER of the People's Chioice award in the 2026 Tassie's Top Tourism Town Awards, with thanks to awards partner Bishopp and category sponsor Tourism Industry Council Tasmania!

A spectacular peninsula in Bass Strait boasts some of the cleanest air in the world. Nestled at the base of an ancient volcanic plug, lies the charming fishing village of Stanley in northwest Tasmania. Here, the hero is the ancient land itself – wild and rocky outcrops adorn stunning seascapes. Historic cottages create a picturesque frame around the town's two pristine beaches, and local residents include a fairy penguin colony. Stanley boasts world-class culinary delights, including freshly caught Tasmanian seafood, Cape Grim Beef and local artisan produce. A small haven that packs a powerful punch for making family memories.
