Camp Cove & South Head
-
Just north of Watsons Bay is Camp Cove, where Governor Phillip spent the night after decamping from Botany Bay (see First Fleet Arives & Captain Cook's Landing Place) and entered Port Jackson for the first time. A track leads from the kiosk at the northern end of this protected beach over to tiny male-nudist Lady Bay Beach, which is overlooked by the HMAS Watson Naval Base. At the end of the track is South Head’s Hornby Lighthouse and several old gun emplacements (see South Head). This windswept headland offers spectacular views out to sea, across to Manly and the North Harbour.
