Description
Near the end of La Perouse point, Botany Bay, walking from Bare Island and I just love the formation of the rocks.
Across the bay you can see Port Botany, Sydney, Australia.
French explorer Comte de La Pérouse landed around here just days after the First Fleet in January 1788.
The French count stayed for six weeks in the area now known as La Perouse, building a stockade and establishing a small garden, before setting sail again for the south seas, never to be seen again.
If La Pérouse had only been a few days earlier Australia Day might well be celebrated with croissants and crepes, rather than beer and a barbie !
