Bruny Island Day Trip with Guide Paul Fleming
Today, Bruny Island is known as a haven for environmentally sensitive tourism and purveyors of the finest local, and boutique, produce; but it’s early settlement was focused on what the island could give up – trees and whales, primarily. The first European settlements began to appear in the 1840’s – however it was the establishment of the Cape Bruny Lighthouse in 1838 that set the island on a course of importance in the European development of Tasmania. Now, a network of National Parks and reserves intertwine around the island, ensuring protection into the future, and also enabling us to engage with the island, rather than simply take from it.
