Adventure Bay in Bruny Island has a European history dating back before settlement. It was first noted by Tasman on his voyage in 1642 but was named by Captain Tobias Furneaux after his ship 'The Adventure' in 1773. Captain Cook landed her in 1777 followed by Bligh and D'Entrecasteaux in 1792/3.
In the early years quarried stone and produce was shipped out from 40 jetties around the bay.
