Murdunna suburb profile
Murdunna is a small village on Tasmania's Forestier Peninsula beside Norfolk Bay, set against stretches of native eucalypt bush. The area maintains a quiet, rural character where low-density housing sits alongside older holiday cottages and timber homes on generous, treed blocks, and many properties have bay or bush outlooks.
Outdoor pursuits are a strong feature, with boating and fishing on Norfolk Bay and bushwalking close at hand. The Arthur Highway provides the main road connection through the peninsula, while a compact village area supplies basic services and larger facilities are found in nearby towns.
