History edit

The traditional owners of the area are the Wirangu and Nauo people, both speakers of the Wirangu language. The first European to sight the area was Matthew Flinders in 1802 on his voyage aboard the Investigator.[2] The first European land exploration was that of John Hill and Samuel Stephens in 1839, followed by Edward John Eyre in the same year.
