Sandy Bay, Coastal district in Hobart, Australia
Sandy Bay extends along the Derwent River with three main beaches: Nutgrove Beach, Long Beach, and Lords Beach, forming a residential area south of central Hobart.
The Mouheneenner people inhabited this land before European settlers received land grants in the early 1800s, transforming the area into a residential district.
The University of Tasmania campus, along with Fahan School, The Hutchins School, and Mount Carmel College, makes Sandy Bay an educational center in Tasmania.
Sandy Bay Road connects the district to central Hobart through Davey Street, providing access to waterfront properties, schools, and retail establishments.
The Wrest Point Hotel Casino, which opened in 1973 as Australia's first legal casino, stands as the highest building in Hobart.
