Corny Point

South Australia's yorke-peninsula

Corny Point is nestled on the northern coast of the southern tip of the Yorke Peninsula, a three-hour drive from Adelaide. This delightful spot is rich in maritime history, famed for its lighthouse, which was built in 1878 from limestone sourced from a nearby farm. It stands as a guiding light for sailors navigating the perilous waters of the Spencer Gulf. This historic structure not only aids in navigation but also provides a fascinating insight into the region's past, where maritime trade was crucial to South Australia's development.

Corny Point holds a deep connection to the traditional custodians of the land, the Narungga people, who refer to it as Nhildidjii in their language. The area is also a birdwatcher's paradise, with a multitude of species frequenting the coastal wetlands.
