Point Nepean Cemetery

On a beautiful sunny day... you can still feel the sad & haunting atmosphere.
Amazing place to visit.

A peaceful area around Point Nepean with some information boards discussing some of the history here. This area dates over 200 years with a combination of mark and unmarked graves. This point of interest is just a short walk from the carpark.

Interesting hauntingly beautiful old cemetery full of sad history

We decided to have a look around this Quarantine Station, found my husbands ancestors graves who worked at the station. Very interesting history of our first settlers and what they went through.

A great place of history

Some great history here in this hidden cemetery in the bush.

Visiting here was a silent and respectful affair.

Eiree place on a cold windy arvo.

Worth a visit

Was great walking around looking at all the old tombstones

It's well maintained in a respectful and historic way. An information panel explaining that many of those buried here were victims of typhus aboard the Ticonderoga in the 19th century. There's a long drop public toilet, maintained tracks through the bushland, parking and a shuttle bus that takes people to the tip of Point Nepean to see the tunnels (bus fares are $8 concession and $12 non concession).
