Port Arthur is an old convict settlement, preserved with its jails, ruins and even a couple of friendly ghosts. Port Arthur is a prominent feature in the history of the 18th century British convict system. The island is now inhabited with modern life, but they have kept the focus on authenticity and preservation.
