I haven't seen a particular map with an area marked as big lagoon. This is the very distinctive narrow strip joining north and south parts of the island. On this map, in the hybrid view, you can see clearly the shallower water to the right and open ocean to the left. The spot with the B66 road marking on the narrow spot is about the exact location. The road is on the right hand edge of the sand hills. That's it between the vegetation and the water on that side http://realtravel.com/bruny_island-tasmania-destmap-d3314607-50.html Thanks for looking. It is a gorgeous part of the world. Unbelievably the water colour really is exactly as shot and shown. Cheers Geoff -----Original Message----- Is the body of water on the left what is refered to on google maps as the "big lagoon"? You're hiding the road?
