Take a look at Bruny Island…
We caught the ferry across to Bruny from Kettering.
We chose a bush camp site at the neck of the Island. A narrow bush area with beach either side. A nice sheltered area behind the sand dunes, and a few metres down to the beach.
Once we had set up, we drove a short distance, then climbed up many stairs to a lookout. Not a bad view and a warm sunny day.
From there we did the board walk out to the beach, through the sand dunes where alot of sea birds nest and hatch their young.
Over the next few days we explored the island from top to bottom. Beautiful bays and beaches at every turn.
While we were on the island there was a bird festival on, which we went to.
Also went for a drive on the beach at one of the bays. Not sure why, and the birds weren’t too happy about having their peace disturbed .
One drive was along a very narrow bush track, high up in the hills.
We found a walking track, which ended up at the site of an old timber mill. The old machinery still laying around in the bush
We had a morning tea at a nice little restaurant at the far end of the Island, Dennes Point .
Also a lunch with a view, Oysters kilpatric. Love them.
On our last afternoon we did a beach walk from where we were camped, to as far as the rocks in the distance, and the waves stopped us from going any further. It didn’t look far, but it was a quite a distance.
So thats it from Bruny Island. We would definitely go back, an Island paradise!
