There is a vehicular ferry can take you across the D’Entrecasteaux Channel to the Island. Bruny has a narrow Isthmus joining the North and South of the Island called the Neck, which is home for a colony of Fairy Penguins whose babies can be seen in the summer months. The Island has one main Road which joins the towns together and divides into two on the South Island, one branch leading to Alonnah, the other leading to Adventure Bay, the landing place of Captain Cook when he was looking for water.

The Island is scattered with pristine beaches, National Parks, walks and wildlife. There is a historic Lighthouse and towering cliffs along the coastline to be seen. Walks, including the coastal track to Penguin Island from Adventure Bay, beach walks at Cloudy Bay offer the chance of spotting Whale, Dolphins, Seals and albatross amongst other wildlife.
