Eaglehawk Neck connects the Tasman Peninsula to the mainland. The high energy ocean beach (T 305) occupies the eastern side of the neck, with the smaller very low energy beach T 366 on the western side. The 10 m wide beach faces west across 200 m wide ridged sand flats, then down the 500 m wide, 5 km long Eaglehawk Bay, with moderately steep wooded slopes rising to either side. The Tasman Highway runs along the rear of the beach then along the southern side of the bay. The northeast shores of Norfolk Bay consist of a few deeply incised drowned valleys that trend east into the tree-covered slopes of the Forestier Peninsula. Several very low energy beaches and sand flats are located in some of the more exposed small bays with beaches T 367 and T 368 located in Flinders and Sommers bays respectively.
