Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- rekharakeshSaharanpur, India236 contributionsOne of Nature's wonders that needs to be experienced & enjoyed.
The view was amazing as it was bright & sunny.
We visited during Easter weekend, so it was very noisy.
The public toilets were dirty and smelly.Written 2 April 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We drew a very new guide, who seemed more preoccupied with procedures than conveying human interest stories, but still well worth a visit. Off peak you can often just pitch up and do a tour, but pre-book for busy times.Written 18 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Alice RHobart, Australia8,926 contributionsAway from the crowds, this was a pleasant place to take a walk supplied with information about the history of the area. The walk wasn't at all difficult and was easy to follow.Written 5 February 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- william jNewton Aycliffe, UK963 contributionsRough, muddy road with only brief views, but some nice birdlife about and we managed to spot an Echidna by the side of the road.Written 4 April 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Wayne NSydney, Australia2,517 contributionsNice little stop along our way to Adventure Bay.
Jus a roadside stop, no rest rooms. But nice enough views of the Coal Bay.
There is a board telling you a bit about the history of the area.Written 5 December 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Great free look out experience for all the family. You can take the board walk to the beach a beautiful naural wonder of Bruny Island.Written 20 September 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The sculpture, which was unveiled in 2005, is by the late Matthew Carney who I have read was a local resident.
The sculpture depicts a sperm whale with its calf inside a world globe and seeks to acknowledge "the symbolic relationship that we have with other inhabitants of Earth".Written 5 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - KasiaLaunceston, Australia93 contributionsOur map of Bruny Island highlighted in large letters "CAPTAIN COOK'S LANDING PLACE", and being very interested in history, we drove up the road looking for the site, and drove down the road looking for it, drove up the road and down the road again, and eventually sited the memorial to the tree. We found a place to park, and there was nothing there to acknowledge the site of the landing. There is no sign of the memorial that people photographed in July 2021 - why is this so????Written 25 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
