Dunalley

Dunalley is a small fishing village on the east coast of Tasmania, Australia. It is approximately 57 km east of Hobart on the Arthur Highway and 20 minutes from Sorell.

Based on recent data, the population of Dunalley is approximately 333 people. The area is known as an accessible, family-friendly location, with an average household size of 2.5 people.

Originally named East Bay Neck, it was renamed Dunalley after Henry Prittie, 3rd Baron Dunalley (1807-1885)

The Denison canal, with a swing bridge for road traffic, has been cut between Dunalley Bay and Blackman Bay to allow boats easy access between the two bays saving them the journey around the bottom of the Tasman Peninsula.

Hand dug, the project started in 1901 and was completed in 1905 and in 1965 a new hydraulic swing bridge replaced the original bridge. It is common for Sydney–Hobart yacht racers returning to Sydney to use the canal as a convenient shortcut.

The town was badly affected by bushfires on 4 January 2013, with the town losing about 65 structures, including the Police Station, school, bakery and local residences.
