Bruny Island Tasmania
|
Bruny
Island at the south eastern tip of Tasmania now has a comprehensive, informative web site showing what to do, where to stay, where to eat, events, the weather, ferry and
timetable, wildlife, National Parks, surfing, walking tracks and the interesting history of the island. There
are lots of photos, including panoramas, which will enable you to plan a holiday, short break or a day visit. |
|
To see the island properly will take you longer than you think! Stay awhile and relax. You deserve it |
| Bruny consists of
two islands, very different in character, which are
joined by a narrow isthmus, "The Neck". North Bruny has
a drier climate and is well suited to sheep farming
whilst South Bruny is more mountainous and has large
areas of rain forest in addition to sandy heathlands.
Both islands have spectacular scenery with wonderful,
deserted beaches and abundant
wildlife.
|
| Bruny is fast
becoming a Mecca for visitors, particularly from
interstate and overseas, and
has become a holiday escape for the people of Hobart,
which lies about 1 hour away by road and the ferry,
'Mirambeena', from Kettering on the A6 from Hobart. |
| The population
remains steady at approx. 600 residents although there
is a large shack-owner population visiting the island on
a regular basis. |
| Bruny Island is well known for its
Penguins, that
appear each evening at the beach area known as The
Neck. A warden supervises the area during the summer
months and plenty of "interpretative" information is
available. An evening visit to see the Penguins is well
worth the effort. |
