Cape Banks

Cape Banks is a headland located at the south end of Bucks Bay and the north end of Bungaloo Bay on the south east coast of South Australia about 36 kilometres (22 mi) west south west of the city of Mount Gambier. The cape is described by one source as being ‘a rocky point, 15m 15 metres (49 ft) high, 24 nautical miles (44 km; 28 mi) miles SSE of Cape Buffon’ while another source describes it as ‘a cuspate foreland protruding 500 metres (1,600 ft) seaward in lee of calcarenite rocks and reefs’. It was named by the Royal Navy officer, James Grant, on 3 December 1800. A settlement known as Carpenter Rocks is located about 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) to the north west of the cape.
