Things to do Ninepin Point provides a unique opportunity to see deepwater species within diveable depths. You will need a torch, regardless of the time of day, as the tannin-rich freshwater surface layer creates night dive conditions in the clear saltwater beneath. With a torch visibility can be up to 15 metres, however strong winds reduce visibility by mixing the tannin layer with the saltwater. The best time of year to dive is during summer or autumn, or when the rainfall is low and flow from Vermilion biscuit stars are commonly seen in the reserve. Although the Huon River is at a minimum.

More than 200 algal species have been recorded at Ninepin Point, which is highly diverse by world standards. The reserve is especially renowned for its red algae, with over 80 species recorded, several of which are only recorded from here. A patch of giant kelp is present off the Ninepin Point headland in depths of 2-6 metres. Like trees in a rainforest, kelp provides a structure that supports a great diversity of marine animals. Instead of tree-like roots that extend into the sediment, kelp has ‘anchors’ called holdfasts that This red algae (Sonderopeltis corriacea) is generally entirely red, but in the Ninepin Point area is commonly a striking combination of yellow grip onto the rock.

SURVEY DEPART lVI ENT. REPORT FOR YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 1891. Hobart, 6th July, 1891. Sm, I HAVE the honor to submit to you a Report on the working of the Survey Department for the year ending June the 30th, 1891. Consequent on the general development of the country, the current work of the office has steadily increased during the year, and the powers of the small staff have been severely strained to satisfy the demands made upon it. This Report will indicate how difficult it is to maintain an efficient staff under existing circumstances; that we have not yet recovered from the reductions previously made ; and that additional assistance is required to prevent the work from falling into serious arrears. CROWN LANDS AcT, 1890. · The consolidated Crown Lands Act passed last Session is a measure of the vei·y greatest importance to the country, and one that has received considerable attention in one form or another ever since the Land Bill of 1883 was introduced to Parliament. A short Land Act was passed each year since 1885, with the result that there were no fewer than twelve Acts to be studied before a stranger could acquire a competent knowledge of our Land Laws. If, therefore, for no other reason than that of consolidation, the Bill would have been hailed with satis­ faction. It, however, aims at the important principle of encouraging agricultural settlement in Mining Districts.
