Overview

Dunalley is a small fishing village on Tasmania’s east coast, perched on the narrow isthmus that separates the Forestier and Tasman Peninsulas from the mainland. The 2021 census recorded 304 residents, with the locality split between the Sorell (37 %) and Tasman (63 %) councils. Located about 57 km east of Hobart and 31 km south‑east of Sorell, it is bounded by Frederick Henry Bay, Norfolk Bay, Blackman Bay and Marion Bay, offering a relaxed coastal lifestyle.

The Arthur Highway (A9) passes through Dunalley, linking it to Sorell and Hobart, while the historic Denison Canal with its 1965 hydraulic swing bridge provides boat access between the bays. The community features a blend of rural homes and seaside residences. Nearby, Mount Forestier rises 1.9 km away and a local weather station at Dunalley (Bangor) records conditions.
