Most places away from town are good , you don't have to go far Tasmania is 80%+ dark site
I'm on the NW coast Ulverstone I have got it from my driveway looking over town
Or I go to Brandon 's lookout a bit darker

Huon Valley is in the deep south of Tassie, so probably the best location geographically. I get some really spectacular shows at my place! Just have to beat the clouds...
