A. isthmus of about a mile wide, separating it from an inlet to 
Se^II. westward of Cape Conway. This bay very probably 
N. East affords good anchorage out of the strength of the tides. 
Coast. 
‘ CAPE CONWAY, in lat. 20° 32', and longitude 148° 54', 
is the western limit of the south entrance of Whitsunday 
Passage ; it is a steep point, sloping off to the eastward ; 
immediately on its north side is a small shingly beach, a few 
yards behind which there is a hollow, containing a large 
quantity of fresh water. At a short quarter of a mile from 
the point is a rocky shoal of small size, between which and 
the shore there is deep water. 
PINE HEAD, in lat. 20° 23', and longitude 148° 51' 40', 
is the south-east extremity of a small island that is separated 
from the main by a passage of about a mile wide, but we did 
not ascertain whether it is navigable. The head is a high, 
bluff point, clothed with pine-trees : near it the tide runs 
in strong eddies, and for that reason it ought not to be ap- 
proached nearer than half a mile ; it appeared to be bold to. 
There is a sandy bay on its south west side affording a good 
landing-place ; the island is clothed with grass, and thickly 
wooded : we found no water. The variation was 5° 35' 
East. 
PORT MOLLE, so named by Lieutenant Jeffreys, ap- 
peared to trend in for four or five miles : and, probably, 
to afford a convenient port, as it is well sheltered from the 
wind, and is protected from the north-east by a group of 
small islands, thickly wooded. Hence the land trends to 
the north-west towards Cape Gloucester; the shore was 
very indistinctly seen, but seemed to be very much in- 
dented, and to possess several bays, if not rivers; for the
