Port Botany is located 12 kilometres south of the Sydney central business district, in the local government area of the City of Randwick.
Botany Bay is where Lieutenant James Cook first landed on 29 April 1770, when navigating his way up the east-coast[3] of Australia on his ship, the Endeavour.
The ship's English naturalist Joseph Banks and Swedish botanist Daniel Solander spent several days on shore collecting vast numbers of previously unknown specimen.
[5] Molineaux Point features views to La Perouse and Kurnell.
Port Botany is a major commercial area that is serviced by road and rail networks, together with Sydney's nearby international and domestic airports.
