The point is described as being "a sloping rocky double projection..." where the "coast on the N[orth] side is low and sandy whereas the coast on the S[outh] side is higher than the point itself."[1] It is the south headland of Hardwicke Bay. It was named by Matthew Flinders on 18 March 1802. The waters adjoining its shoreline are within the Southern Spencer Gulf Marine Park. Since 1882, it has been the site of a navigation aid in the form of a lighthouse.[2][3][4][5][6][7] References1. ^{{cite enroute|175|2017|197}} {{Yorke Peninsula}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Corny Point (South Australia)}}{{SouthAustralia-geo-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite web|title= Lighthouse cottages Corny Point|url= http://www.samemory.sa.gov.au/site/page.cfm?u=714&c=6684|publisher=The State Library of South Australia|accessdate=28 November 2014}} 3. ^{{Citation | author1=South Australia.
