It is near Dunalley in the municipality of Sorell. Its south-western shore is contained by the Marion Bay Important Bird Area. DiscoveryAbel Tasman first anchored just north of a small island in the southern part of this large bay in 1642, and landed in the area he named Frederick Henricx Bay (now Blackman Bay).[1]The bay was later named after the Breton navigator Marion du Fresne, who arrived in his ship the "Mascarin" with the "Marquis de Castries" in March 1772. Marion recorded that "One sailor found numbers of crayfish, lobsters and huge crabs, and the oysters there are good and abundant" [2] Marion’s landing is the first recorded sighting and description of the Tasmanian people by Europeans, unfortunately one of the Tasmanians was shot dead by Marion‘s men. Marion then sailed to New Zealand where he was killed by Māori in the Bay of Islands. FestivalMarion Bay was host to the first Tasmanian Falls Festival in December 2003. It attracted more than 10,000 people and has become an annual event, as has the festival's counterpart in Victoria, Fremantle and latterly Byron Bay. Army worm infestationIn December 2008, an infestation of Army worms in Marion Bay was reported in the national media. Despite the problems residents encountered, infestations of this sort are apparently common wherever the worms are.[3] In October 2008 a general alert was sounded that such an infestation was likely to occur.[4] References1. ^The Tasman Map (1644), The Mitchell Library, Sydney {{East Coast Tasmania}}{{Tasmania-geo-stub}}2. ^R.W.Giblin, The Early History of Tasmania, 3. ^(Video) 4. ^News report, TAS Country Hour, ABC Rural {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030826200527/http://www.abc.net.au/rural/tas/stories/s698146.htm |date=26 August 2003 }} 3 : East Coast Tasmania|Towns in Tasmania|Bays of Tasmania |
