Corny Point

The lighthouse at Corny Point

Corny Point is at the north-western tip of the "boot" of Yorke Peninsula, South Australia. It was named by Matthew Flinders in March 1802. A lighthouse was built in 1882. The site is notable for outcrops of Palaeoproterozoic gneisses of the Lincoln Complex on the wave cut platform at the base of the low limestone cliffs.
