Getting there

Car

If you're driving, start from the Central Business District (CBD) of Sydney. Take the M1 motorway from the city, following signs for 'Sutherland' and 'Prince Highway'. After about 25 kilometers, take the exit for 'Taren Point Road' and merge onto it. Continue straight onto 'Captain Cook Drive' and follow the signs for 'Kurnell'. You'll reach Cape Solander Drive, where you will turn right to arrive at the destination. Be mindful of parking regulations; parking is generally available but may incur a small fee.

Public Transportation

To reach Cape Solander via public transport, start at any major station in Sydney (like Central Station). Take a train on the T4 Eastern Suburbs & Illawarra Line towards Cronulla. Get off at Cronulla Station. From there, catch bus number 987 towards Kurnell. The bus will take you directly to Cape Solander Drive. The bus fare will depend on your distance from the CBD, with an Opal card being the most convenient payment method. The total journey may take around 1.5 hours.

Taxi or Rideshare

For a more direct route, consider taking a taxi or rideshare (like Uber) from your location in Sydney. Simply input 'Cape Solander Dr, Kurnell NSW 2231' as your destination. This option is more expensive than public transport, typically ranging from AUD 50 to AUD 80, depending on your starting point and traffic conditions. This method is convenient and allows for a more comfortable journey, especially if you're traveling with luggage.
