	AusEmade: Eaglehawk Neck Information and Attractions, Tasmania (TAS), Australia
		As you descend down out of the hills above Eaglehawk Neck, stop at the viewing points beside the road and take in the dramatic views across Eaglehawk and east across Pirate’s Bays.
		Eaglehawk Neck itself is a tie bar made of sand carried by currents and waves from the floor bed of Pirate’s Bay to the east and Norfolk Bay to the west.
		It joins the Tasman Peninsula where Port Arthur is located to Forestier Peninsula in a narrow strip of land which is less than 100 m wide.

		At its southern extremity is a deep indentation called Maingon Bay, bounded east and west by the organ-pipe rocks of Cape Raoul, and the giant form of Cape Pillar.
		From the extremity of Long Bay, as the extension of the sea-arm was named, a convict-made tramroad ran due north, through the nearly impenetrable thicket to Norfolk Bay.
		Eaglehawk Neck was the door to the prison, and it was kept bolted.

		Eaglehawk Neck (pop ~200) is a narrow isthmus at the top of the Tasman Peninsula.
		In convict times, it was manned by guards who ran a chain from one side of the neck to the other, and tethered savage dogs to it to stop prisoners escaping.
		Walks from Eaglehawk Neck include Clyde Island (1½ hours return) at low tide, along the cliffs to Waterfall Bay (2 hours return) or a more challenging 7 hour hike to Fortescue Bay.

		At its southern extremity is a deep indentation called Maingon Bay, bounded east and west by the organ–pipe rocks of Cape Raoul, and the giant form of Cape Pillar.
		On the western coast of this sea–arm was the settlement; in front of it was a little island where the dead were buried, called The Island of the Dead.
		From the extremity of Long Bay, as the extension of the sea–arm was named, a convict–made tramroad ran due north, through the nearly impenetrable thicket to Norfolk Bay.

		The Pirates Bay House is a small coastal retreat near Eaglehawk Neck on Tasmania's Tasman Peninsular.
		Entrance to the building is intentionally at the rear to avoid the insertion of a stair and, more importantly, to reinforce the experience of a ‘bridge journey’ upon arrival.
		It is oriented generally between the north and south ends of Pirates Bay, giving no real priority to either, while making a strong gesture toward the open ocean and the mean point of dawn.

	Tasmanian Sea Levels - Lessons from the Isle of the Dead
		Spring Bay to the north is different in that it sits on the east coast of Tasmania with a sea access facing east toward the Tasman Sea.
		An El Niño has the effect of temporarily depressing mean sea levels throughout the southwest Pacific, including Tasmania, such as shows up clearly on this sea level record from Devonport on the north coast of Tasmania, where sea level appears to drop about 10 cm for the duration of the event.
		That we came to the same answer for Spring Bay is interesting, perhaps coincidental, but would not necessarily agree for other stations.
