%X The Port Arthur Historic Site is the most visited tourist attraction in Tasmania and Australia?s premier convict heritage site. It is located on the Tasman Peninsula in southeast Tasmania approximately 70km east of Hobart. The site covers an area in excess of 50 Ha and is managed by the Port Arthur Historic Site Management Authority (PAHSMA). The Port Arthur Penal station at Mason Cove and its satellite juvenile establishment at Point Puer operated during the period 1830-1877. During these 47 years, approximately 13,000 convict men and boys spent time at the Port Arthur settlement, which at its peak supported a population of up to 3500 people.
