Bruny Island
It’s a 15 minute ride by car ferry from Kettering to Bruny.
The island deserves more than a one-day visit – it’s an island of surprises, from the sunny beaches and grasstree forests of North Bruny to the sea cliffs and seascapes of Fluted Cape, Cloudy Bay and Cape Bruny. On North Bruny, take time to see the works of local artists in Dennes Point’s new Art at The Point gallery. On your island journey, stop and visit Bruny’s producers – sensational Get Shucked oysters at Great Bay; nearby, wood-fired breads and hand-made creations from Bruny Island Cheeses; sweet treats at Island Fudge on the way to Adventure Bay; superb pinot from the nation’s most southerly vines at Bruny Island Premium Wines, near lunawanna.
Two eco-cruises explore the wild and remote coastline south from Adventure Bay – Rob Pennicott’s multi award-winning Bruny Island Cruises; and the Bruny Wildlife Adventure, linked to the Peppermint Bay cruise from Hobart. There’s a variety of accommodation options – stylish beach houses, comfortable cabins, friendly B&Bs or a tent pitched beneath a grove of shady casuarinas.
