Montague Island In Australia

Montague Island (36°15′S 150°13′E) is 9 kilometres offshore from Narooma on the south coast of New South Wales, Australia. It was sighted by James Cook and named Cape Dromedary, then identified as an island and named by the master of the Second Fleet convict transport Surprize after George Montagu-Dunk, 2nd Earl of Halifax.[1][2] Montague Island is a popular tourist destination, known for its lighthouse, wildlife (especially little penguins), and recreational activities.
