Adventure Bay was first sighted by Abel Tasman in 1642 and later renamed by Captain Tobias Furneaux in 1773 after his ship HMS Adventure. The bay served as a key anchorage for explorers such as Cook, Bligh, and Flinders, and became a centre for whaling and timber in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Blighs Rocks lies about 1.2 km away, the Adventure Bay fuel depot (weather station) is roughly 1.3 km distant, and the shoreline of Adventure Bay itself is approximately 1.8 km from the property.
The town offers a general store that sells petrol, a café, and serves as a departure point for cruises around Bruny Island.
Adventure Bay was known for shore‑based whaling stations from the 1820s and later supported a robust timber milling industry, with a jetty used to load timber onto ships.
The post office opened on 1 December 1890 and closed in 1974.
