About

Egg Island is a small island, with an area of 0.83 ha, in south-eastern Australia. It is part of the North Coast Group, lying in Bass Strait on Horseshoe Reef near Devonport in north-west Tasmania. It has been identified as an Important Bird Area (IBA) because of its globally significant colony of black-faced cormorants. Wright Island is nearby.
