Didn't see much to look at on the Bass Hwy drive over but found a nice, but crowded, campsite at Green Point.
Camped on a fair sideways angle but slept great.

Not too far away is the West Point which is the most Westerly Point of Tasmania, I spent a fair bit of time wandering through the Tiger Snake infested area looking for the remains of the West Point Lighthouse ...
when i found it there was a road right beside it so i drove my car around there and enjoyed the spot out of the wind.
