First Fleet Arrives
-
Governor Phillip and the First Fleet of 11 ships, carrying 1,500 convicts, guards, military officials and their families, arrived at Botany Bay in 1788. Unable to find sufficient fresh water, Phillip sailed north and found one of the world’s “finest harb-ours”. The colony was established at a small cove named in honour of Phillip’s neighbour, Viscount Sydney.
