The Coffee Pot, also known simply as Coffee Pot, with a shape suggesting a coffee pot, is an unpopulated steep, rocky islet located close to the south-western coast of Tasmania, Australia. It is situated some northwest of where the mouth of Port Davey meets the Southern Ocean, the 0.31ha islet is part of the Trumpeter Islets Group, and comprises part of the Southwest National Park and the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Site.[1] [2]
The islet is part of the Port Davey Islands Important Bird Area, so identified by BirdLife International because of its importance for breeding seabirds.[3] The black-faced cormorant breeds on the islet.[2]
