Have a look at http://www.tasmaniatravel.com.au/ for things to do but for
starters

The wilderness railway that runs between Strahan and Queenstown
Cradle Mountain
The Dismal Swamp (yes that's its name)
The various cruises and adventure tours
Boags or the Cascade Brewery
Salamanca Market (a must)
The Freycinet Peninsula
Maria Island (little visited but worth it)
Stanley
The North East coast (Bicheno, the Bay of fires etc.)
and many more
