This is one of my favourite spots in all of Sydney Harbour. I like to climb down the ladder in the cliff face and sit on that little bridge across to the lighthouse and watch ferries, cruise ships, kayaks, and whatever else comes into view on the harbour. Robertson's Point was called Wulworrá-jeung by local Aborigines, the Cammeraygal. It's at the very tip of Cremorne Point. James Robertson, a Scottish watchmaker, was granted 86 acres of land here in 1832. he built a house here.
PS, all the masts across the harbour (above) are of the Sydney-Hobart yacht race fleet in Rushcutters Bay.

Fabulous shots. Love that first one in particular - and great to see the yachts prior to the Sydney-Hobart.
Nice lighthouse image, Sally. I also like the first one in particular.
Really a beautiful lighthouse !!
I spent the first part of New Year's Day in Rushcutter's Bay park just near those masts. Also a stunning location, albeit more built environment.
Been to Sydney 5 times now on holiday from the UK and still there is more things I find we have not seen. Oh well another excuse to visit your fabulous Country and City.
Nice shot and spot. It looks like a cool place to sit and watch and snap photos. :)
This spot is absolutely beautiful, and when Sally told us to go there, she was absolutely right!
Thank you very much, it was beautiful, peaceful and magic....
I love the lighthouse structure.
