About
Hunter Island, located in the pristine Bass Strait between King Island and north-west Tasmania, offers a captivating surfing experience with rippable beach-breaks that cater to various skill levels. With waves that start working at under 1 meter and can hold up to 2 meters, surfers can enjoy both left and right-breaking waves over a sandy bottom, making it ideal for both beginners and seasoned wave riders. Beyond the surf, the island is a vital habitat for the critically endangered orange-bellied parrot and is steeped in maritime history, adding a unique ecological and cultural dimension to your visit.
