Cooee unfurls itself from the undulating slopes leading towards the western edge of Tasmania’s north-west coast, where the land softens into a patchwork of green paddocks and scattered stands of gum trees. It lies 42.0 km west-north-west of Devonport, TAS (from Devonport, TAS: bearing 290°T), and is situated 2.8 km west-north-west of Burnie. The air here carries a distinct tang of the sea, even a kilometre inland, a subtle salinity that whispers of the Bass Strait’s ceaseless churn. Hills, not imposing mountains, shape the horizon, their flanks often cloaked in the muted greens of pasture, punctuated by the darker, more rugged textures of bushland. The light, especially in the late afternoon, can cast a warm, honeyed glow across these rounded forms, making the weathered fences and the occasional corrugated iron roof gleam with a quiet, enduring beauty.
This stretch of coast has long been a place of passage and sustenance, its history etched not in grand monuments but in the enduring spirit of those who have worked its soil and drawn from its waters. Once, the land thrummed with the industry of mining, the ghosts of its extraction still palpable in the very contours of the earth. Today, while remnants of that past linger, the local economy leans more towards agriculture, with sheep grazing on the fertile slopes and smaller farms yielding produce. The proximity to the larger port of Burnie influences the rhythm of Cooee, a steady hum of activity rather than a frantic rush, a place where the echoes of the past are respected, and the present is lived with a grounded, practical grace.
