Binalong Bay

The landscape around Binalong Bay is a meeting of white-sand beaches, granite headlands and coastal heath, which has shaped both the settlement’s low-rise form and its tourism-led economy. On Tasmania’s northeast coast, it sits at the southern end of the Bay of Fires, a shoreline known for granite boulders often coloured orange by lichen. The bay’s name recalls fires seen along this coast by Captain Tobias Furneaux in 1773, reflecting Tasmanian Aboriginal presence. Swimming, beaches and coastal walks define the local pace, while nearby St Helens is the principal service town.
