Arthur River is the name of a small township on the northern part of the West Coast of Tasmania, Australia.
Bushwalking, fishing and four-wheel-driving are the most common activities undertaken by travellers in the region to get a glimpse of the unspoiled wilderness.
The population in the area peaks during the summer months when shack users come here to enjoy the weather.

North West Coast Tasmania, and a poem by tourism pioneer Brian Inder, who coined the term, referring to the coastline at Arthur River which is regularly lashed by the gales of the Roaring Forties.
