North, West Coast, Central Coast & More Tassie Living is a lifestyle website and magazine that aims to keep residents and visitors informed about local news, lifestyle trends, the food scene and so much more.​

We are committed to keeping local news free, but we also see the need for increased coverage of lo

cal news, sport and events in the West Coast and North West. We don’t believe access to information should be dependent on someone’s ability to pay a subscription, so like our magazine, the website will continue to be free.​

Our website is also dedicated to promoting and supporting local businesses and community groups. We believe in fostering a strong sense of community and empowering local entrepreneurs and creatives.​
