Overview

Murdunna is a rural locality on the Forestier Peninsula in Tasmania’s South‑east region, perched at the head of King George Sound where the Tasman Sea meets Norfolk Bay. The 2016 census recorded 309 residents, but the town swells in summer as Hobart families seek weekend getaways, many of whom own holiday homes. Recreation centres on nearby Sommers Bay, just five kilometres west, while the surrounding hills, Murdunna Hill, Bun Hill and Blackman Hill, add to the natural appeal.

Improved road links along the Arthur Highway (Route A9) run through Murdunna from the northwest to the south, making daily commutes to Hobart feasible. Tourism drives the local economy, complemented by a continuing forestry sector. The housing stock reflects a blend of permanent residences and non‑resident holiday properties, offering a relaxed coastal lifestyle.
