About Weymouth
Weymouth is a small coastal locality in the George Town Council area of northern Tasmania, situated approximately 37 kilometres north-east of George Town and 60 kilometres from Launceston. The locality sits on the northern bank of the Pipers River where it meets the Bass Strait coast, opposite the adjacent settlement of Bellingham. With a population of approximately 111 residents and an area of 27 square kilometres, it is a quiet, low-density community defined by coastal farmland and waterway access.
The locality's position at the Pipers River mouth gives it a distinctive character, with coastal fishing, birdlife, and scenic Bass Strait views among its natural attractions. There are no commercial services within Weymouth itself; residents travel to George Town or the Pipers River area for shops, schools, and amenities. The area appeals to those who appreciate a remote coastal rural lifestyle in one of Tasmania's least developed northern stretches.
Weymouth falls under postcode 7252 and is governed by the George Town Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Bass, while state elections fall under the Bass (Windermere) electorate.
