Hobart to Oyster Cove

Between Bruny Island and the mainland is the Dentrecasteaux Channel. The region on the mainland-side of the water is simply known as The Channel and is widely recognised as being one of the nicest regions in Tasmania. Because of the Channel's popularity is has become busy recently but Oyster Cove has remained a quiet locality, partly because there is no township or industry (apart from farming) and the highway is over a kilometre from the water.
