Cape Peron "Observation Post" by

Point Peron is also known as Cape Peron. Rugged limestone cliffs, reefs and beautiful panoramic views are a feature of this very popular area.

During WWII, an observation post for the coastal battery was located on the hilltop, and the old buildings remain.

A short climb up to the old observation post will give you spectacular views over Cockburn Sound, and the offshore islands. The lookout can be accessed by a pleasant winding path (no steps), or a fairly steep set of steps for those feeling a little more energetic!

Point Peron is excellent for fishing, snorkelling and diving. Explore the rock pools at low tide.
