Sublime Point

Sublime Point is a feature of the Illawarra Escarpment west of Austinmer. It is a summit (415m elevation) on the plateau edge where the escarpment turns to go in a more northerly direction from a more northeasterly direction. The surrounding parkland area was proclaimed in 1925 by the NSW Government.[1]
