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

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
