Clonmel Island is a sand island in Corner Inlet, in the Gippsland region of Victoria, Australia. Clonmel Island lies within the Nooramunga Marine and Coastal Park and is part of a complex of barrier islands that protect a large marine embayment from the pounding waves of Bass Strait.[1]
History
The island is named after the paddle steamer PS Clonmel which was wrecked in the Port Albert Entrance to Corner Inlet, immediately east of the island, in 1841.[2]
