You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 35.175.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:20, 2 March 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Blackmans Bay''' is a coastal suburb of [[Kingborough Council]], [[Tasmania]], [[Australia]]. It forms part of the [[Kingston, Tasmania|Kingston]]-Blackmans Bay urban area<ref>((Cite web|url=http://www.ausstats.abs.gov.au/ausstats/subscriber.nsf/0/735A104E4E83C6E2CA256CF40001D92A/$File/20160_2001.pdf|title=Selected Characteristics for Urban Centres, Australia|year=2001|publisher=Australian Bureau of Statistics|access-date=30 January 2022|archive-date=4 September 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150904020739/http://www.ausstats.abs.gov.au/ausstats/subscriber.nsf/0/735A104E4E83C6E2CA256CF40001D92A/$File/20160_2001.pdf|url-status=live))</ref> and is a satellite town of [[Hobart|Greater Hobart]].<ref>((cite web|url=https://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/abs@.nsf/0/463f50115b6dccfbca2571a9001e1f44/$FILE/TAS.pdf|title=AUSTRALIAN STANDARD GEOGRAPHICAL CLASSIFICATION (ASGC)|year=2006|website=ABS.gov.au|publisher=[[Australian Bureau of Statistics]]|access-date=30 January 2022|archive-date=30 January 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220130020814/https://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/abs@.nsf/0/463f50115b6dccfbca2571a9001e1f44/$FILE/TAS.pdf|url-status=live))</ref> It borders [[Kingston Beach]] to the north, [[Maranoa Heights]] and the [[Peter Murrell Conservation Area]] to the west and Howden and [[Tinderbox, Tasmania|Tinderbox]] to the south.

==Etymology==
Blackmans Bay is named after James Blackman, who occupied land there in the 1820s.<ref name="auto">((cite book |last1=Gardam |first1=Julie |title=Brown's River: A History of Kingston and Blackmans Bay |date=1988 |publisher=Rotary Club of Kingston |location=Kingston |isbn=0731639596))</ref> Another "Blackman Bay", near Dunalley (also in Tasmania) was so named in 1642 because of the presence of [[Aboriginal Tasmanians]].

==Geography==
Blackmans Bay is located on the hills surrounding a popular sandy beach.

There is a blowhole near the northern end of the beach, which has eroded and forms a large rock arch where waves can be seen coming in and crashing on the rocks. James Baynton is credited with the discovery of the blowhole when he found his lost dog whimpering at its base.<ref name="auto"/>

At the southern end of the beach are rocks leading to Flowerpot Point, a popular spot for fishing, although snags are an issue because of the prevalence of seaweed and rock ledges beneath the water. Beyond Flowerpot Point lies a quiet pebble beach that is accessible at low tide. The Suncoast Headlands walking track leads south via clifftops to Soldiers Rocks, dog exercise area and bushland loop walking track.

At the southern boundary of the suburb lies Fossil Cove,<ref>((Cite web |title=Fossil Cove Track |url=https://www.kingborough.tas.gov.au/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/16-Fossil-Cove-track.pdf |access-date=20 March 2023 |archive-date=19 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230319000533/https://www.kingborough.tas.gov.au/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/16-Fossil-Cove-track.pdf |url-status=live ))</ref> accessible via a steep walking track from Fossil Cove Drive.

==Infrastructure==
Blackmans Bay has three [[primary school]]s from kindergarten to grade six: Blackmans Bay, Illawarra, established in the late 1980s, and the [[Catholic Church|Catholic]] St. Aloysius. 

The shopping centre Bayview Market, located centrally within the suburb, includes a supermarket, newsagency, [[doctor's office|doctor's surgery]], pharmacy and a variety of other stores.

Blackmans Bay also has a set of three restaurants near the shore: Bombay on the Beach (Indian, fish and chips),<ref>((Cite web |url=https://bombaybeach.com.au/ |title=Bombay Beach |access-date=26 March 2023 |archive-date=26 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230326214912/https://bombaybeach.com.au/ |url-status=live ))</ref> Jack Loves Red (burgers, pizza),<ref>((Cite web|url=https://jacklovesred.com.au/|title=Jack Loves Red &#124; Beachside dining in Blackmans Bay|website=jacklovesred.com.au|accessdate=25 June 2023|archive-date=18 October 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231018040758/https://jacklovesred.com.au/|url-status=live))</ref> and the Beach House Hotel (modern bistro).<ref>((cite web | url=https://www.thebeachhousebb.com/dining | title=Dining | access-date=26 March 2023 | archive-date=26 March 2023 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230326214904/https://www.thebeachhousebb.com/dining | url-status=live ))</ref>

==History==
The 1830 ''Ross Almanack'' describes Blackmans Bay as "[...] several small farms. It is a very romantically situated little settlement with a fine sandy beach in front. The potatoes that grow there are as celebrated as those of Brown's River." The only families referenced in the text are the Mansfields and the Lovetts. The signal station "Mount Lewis" is said to be located next to the Lovett household.<ref>((cite book |last1=Ross |first1=James |title=Ross's Hobart Town Almanack and Van Diemen's Land Annual for 1835 |date=1835 |publisher=James Ross |location=Hobart Town))</ref>

Despite knowledge of the Bay's existence it was settled relatively late, and by 1842 only four or five families lived in the area. The road from Hobart reached Brown's River and ended in Kingston Beach, with only a sandy track over the hill connecting Kingston Beach and Blackmans Bay. One of the earliest settlers was William Sherburd who was granted 50 acres there in 1818, which he started farming in 1819. The existing oval at Blackmans Bay bears Sherburd's name.<ref name="auto"/>

Blackmans Bay did not develop as quickly as Brown's River or Kingston Beach, as the lack of a road or jetty made it difficult to access. Therefore the area enjoyed little development between 1830 and 1880, with farmland growth but little change in population. There were still few residents by the 1930s, with only the following six families listed as residing in the area: Ranger, Parson, Ayres, Sherburd, Chamberlain and Keeble. The area enjoyed greater growth during the post-war period. At the beginning of 1947 there were 57 families in the area, and by the end of the year there were 343.<ref name="auto"/>
