The Captain Cook Bridge is one of three major road crossings of the Georges River. It is a six-lane precast prestressed concrete bridge that links Rocky Point Road at Sans Souci in the St George area to Taren Point Road at Taren Point in the Sutherland Shire. A ferry service ran between these southern suburbs from 1911 and a vehicular punt ran between these two points from 1916. The Captain Cook Bridge was opened in 1965 and named after explorer Captain James Cook who landed at nearby Kurnell on 29 April 1770, when navigating his way around Australia. At sunset yesterday there were plenty of fishermen fishing off the rocks at Sans Souci and in boats on the river.
