Sultana Point is a headland near the south east tip of Yorke Peninsula in South Australia about 3.3 kilometres (2.1 mi)* south-southeast of Edithburgh. The waters to its immediate east contain the shoal system known as the Troubridge Shoals. It is one of the natural features named after the Sultana, a ship which was wrecked on the Troubridge Shoals on 28 September 1849. The waters adjoining its shores are located within the boundaries of the Lower Yorke Peninsula Marine Park.[2][3][4][5]
