Corny Point is a locality in the Australian state of South Australia located about 7.5 kilometres (4.7 miles) to the east of the north-western tip of the Yorke Peninsula.[1][9] It was named after the nearby headland, Corny Point.[1] The first pastoral lease was taken up in 1846 by James Coutts.[10][11]
Corny Point is located within the federal division of Grey, the state electoral district of Narungga and the local government area of the Yorke Peninsula Council.[1][7][8]
