Bruny Island, Tasmania

Bruny Island is an island of stunning natural beauty, close to Hobart, in the state of Tasmania in Australia. It's a possible day-trip from Hobart, but with boutique accommodation and plenty to offer for longer stays. The island is divided into North and South Bruny, joined by a narrow isthmus.

North Bruny is mainly farmland, and is relatively flat. South Bruny is more mountainous, and is more heavily forested. The national park sections are on South Bruny. The main town for visitors is Adventure Bay on South Bruny. This is where the cruises depart from, and is adjacent to one of the three discrete sections of South Bruny National Park. There is accommodation here, and a bowling club for drinks and meals. If you are going to spot the White Wallaby, along the national park track here at dusk is your best chance, and the rainforest and walks are in the hills just about the town. Not far from Adventure Bay is the town of Allonah. Not as much of a tourist centre, you'll find the post office, pharmacy and the pub here, as well as walks along the water. There are smaller settlements, a few cafes and produce centres scattered around.

Bruny Island is approximately 100 km from one end to the other. Essentially, there is one road that stretches the length of the island, with branch roads to towns, beaches and attractions. Expect to take around 45 minutes to drive between the ferry and Adventure Bay or Allonah at the north of the South Island. Then another half an hour or so from there down to Cape Bruny. The advisory speed limit drops to 45 km/h on many parts of the main road between dusk and dawn - due to the danger of hitting wildlife. Also, remember that the insurance on many rental cars does not cover damage done to their cars hitting wildlife between dusk and dawn. The common ways to explore are by private car or by tour. There is no scheduled public transport on the island. There are no facilities provided on the narrow shoulders for cyclists.

cloudy bay beach, Bruny Island, Tasmania

Sometimes it is good to just get away from all the tourist attractions and just explore with no agenda. In my experience, these adventures lead to the best trip memories.
Returning to Cloudy Bay on Bruny Island after years of recalling my memory, it was as fabulous as remembered. A dip beckoned me on the rainless, warm day when the water was bright blue and magical.
