The Tasman Peninsula

TUNNEL BAY

Tunnel Bay is just one of the numerous walks on the peninsula.  Nine kilometres past Port Arthur heading towards Nubeena is a left turn on Stormlea Road.  Follow the "Cape Raoul Walking Track" signs.  About 9 kilometres along the road the road narrows to a single track.  There is parking at this point.  The walking track starts about 200 metres up the road at a gate.  There are steps across the fence.  After about half an hour, the track  divides.  Cape Raoul track heads left and Tunnel Bay and Ship Stern Bluff  track heads right.  It is about an hour to an hour and a half to the bay with a steep descent from high on top of the cliffs to be negotiated.  tough on the way back.
