The story behind View 42˚

The west coast of Tasmania is like no other place in the world; it’s wild, rugged and breathtakingly beautiful. It’s here in Strahan that you’ll breathe some of the freshest air in the world. View 42˚ gets its name from the prevailing westerly winds that circulate in the southern hemisphere; you may have heard of them as the ‘roaring forties’. As these winds travel across the vast Southern Ocean all the way from Argentina, they hit the first landmass at around 42 degrees latitude south before reaching the west coast of Tasmania. Here, the rugged terrain and ancient rainforests influence the airflow to act as a temperature regulator, cooling the air. View 42 degrees represents a place for embracing the wild winds and fresh open air of the West Coast. At the end of your days, we invite you to cosy up by our fireplace on our outdoor deck with a glass of wine in hand and bear witness to the spectacular western sunset Strahan is renowned for.
