South Head, Sydney

South Head (GPS: -33.83321, 151.28042) is the peninsula that forms the entrance into Sydney Harbour. Together with North Head, it is called Sydney Heads. Areas not occupied by residential development are included in the Sydney Harbour National Park.

Visitors to South Head can explore it on a footpath that starts at Camp Cove Beach. The footpath - a cobblestone lane dating from 1870 - takes you past a number of heritage sights and beaches in the area, while at the same time offering scenic views of the surroundings. At the tip of South Head is HMAS Watson, a Royal Australian Navy training base.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
