STEVE OLD - CEO
Tasmania is always looking for new and exciting adventures for both tourists and locals and we need to support and promote people and groups who look to create exciting new experiences, especially in regional areas of our state. With record numbers of visitors to Tasmania, we must continually strive to market our regions so that we see dispersal into all areas. A great way to market our regions is to promote some of the new and exciting visitor and local experiences’. A great example of what I am talking about is the new ‘Freycinet Paintball’. Freycinet Paintball opened its gates to the public on the 18th of December 2017. Property owners Vaughan and Beck Alexander along with business partner Pete Moult began planning the project in July 2016. Located at 961 Coles Bay Road on the beautiful Freycinet Peninsula, this exciting new development caters for groups ranging from 8 to 30 people with plans to accommodate larger groups in the very near future! Welcoming Birthday parties, Bucks/Hens parties, staff/team bonding groups, college groups, corporate/business bonding and sporting clubs! The Freycinet Peninsula is fast becoming well known as an outdoor adventurer’s playground. Freycinet Paintball aims to add a slant of adrenalin fuelled action to the array of activities already on offer such as boat cruises, guided kayak tours, quad bike tours, scenic flights, jet boat and aqua taxi. Freycinet Paintball is the 5th field to open in Tassie since becoming legal in November 2015. Paintball is a fun activity available to anyone aged from 16 years and above. Various game scenarios can be played in a natural, authentic bush setting. The fields feature trenches, bunkers, barricades and even an army truck to add authenticity to the combat warfare setting. Players are equipped with full camouflage suits to ensure maximum protection in the field. Freycinet Paintball is a licenced venue and has free BBQ facilities on site. They can be found on Facebook, Instagram, and snapchat or contact on their website www.freycinetpaintball.com for more details or to make a booking. “Have you got the balls?”
