Adventure Bay on Bruny Island - Tasmania
Adventure Bay is a large eastern-facing bay on South Bruny. It is one of the main townships and has a General Store and Caravan Park.
Adventure Bay Beach is a popular spot for swimming as it is one of the most sheltered beaches on the island. Adventure Bay got its name from Captain Tobias Furneaux’s ship ‘The Adventure’ in 1773.
Your best chance to spot a White Wallaby is at Adventure Bay in the late afternoon or early morning. White wallabies are Bennett's wallabies with a rare genetic mutation that gives them their white fur & pink eyes, ears & nose.
