Cape Capricorn
Cape in Queensland, Australia
Cape Capricorn is a coastal headland on Curtis Island, Gladstone Region, Queensland, Australia.[1]
It was named by Captain Cook when he passed on 25 May 1770, since he found it to be located on the Tropic of Capricorn (which was located at 23°28′15″ in 1770).[2] The modern surveyed location of its endpoint is just slightly south of the present tropic.
