Everything about Shark Island Port Jackson totally explained
Shark Island is an island in
Sydney Harbour,
Australia. It lies offshore of the
Sydney suburbs of
Point Piper,
Rose Bay and
Vaucluse, in the eastern section of the harbour between the
Harbour Bridge and the harbour entrance.
The local
aboriginal peoples call the island
Boambilly, or perhaps Bo-a-millie. The name Shark Island is from its shape, which is claimed to resemble a
shark.
The island measures some 250 metres by 100 metres. Parts were set aside as a recreation reserve as early as
1879 and it was also used as an animal
quarantine station and naval depot up until
1975. At that time it became exclusively a recreation reserve and part of the
Sydney Harbour National Park. Approved operators and a scheduled ferry service take people to the island.
