Flinders
Located 20 km north of Cape Portland (north east tip of Tasmania) by sea and 151 km from Launceston by air, Flinders Island is the largest of the Furneaux group of islands which lie at the eastern end of Bass Strait separating Tasmania from Victoria. It is about 29 km wide at its widest point and 64 km long. The island was probably part of the land bridge which joined Tasmania to the mainland. Bass strait was formed as a result of the melting of ice after the last ice age and consequently Flinders and Cape Barren became islands and the Aborigines of Tasmania were cut off from their mainland counterparts.
