C.Y. O'Connor Beach

It extends from McTaggart Cove in the south to Catherine Point in the north and is also known[clarification needed] as the CY O'Connor Reserve.

O'Connor sculpture is one of the features of the beach; the statue is situated in the ocean about 30 metres (98 ft) off the shoreline.

The statute acknowledges that this is where C. Y. O'Connor rode his horse into the surf and committed suicide.

[2] Also on the beach is the hulk of SS Wyola, which was dismantled there for scrap; alongside it is the remnants of the timber barge that was used.

[vague] Previously the beach and adjoining land was part of Robb's Jetty Abattoir.
