Bruny Island is the perfect destination for those who appreciate outdoor activities amidst the rugged beauty of unspoilt bushland, beaches, cliffs and sea.
Popular activities include sea kayaking (we supply kayaks), mountain biking (an extensive network of tracks and trails caters for all standards - there are magnificent views from some of the higher trails), walking (South Bruny has extensive

national parkland and state forests with plenty of bushwalking options from short strolls to longer hikes), surfing (Cloudy Bay - about 20 mins drive from Mandala - is a popular destination),fishing  (cast a line from the rocks or jetty, or launch your tinny from Alonnah or Adventure Bay boat ramps) and
swimming (choose from the many surf and sheltered beaches around the island).
