Caravan Head is a locality in southern Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. It is located in the north-eastern part of the suburb of Oyster Bay. It is situated on the southern bank of the Georges River. ==Caravan Head Nature Reserve==
Caravan Head Reserve contains a diverse array of native ridgetop native vegetation due to the fact the land was put aside for a proposed school that was never built eventually its ownership was transferred and a development proposal was put forward in the 1990s after local uproar and political support the land was bought by the state government and it was turned into a nature reserve. During the reserves early history it was severely damaged when the centre of the site was gutted of vegetation and bike tracks cut the remaining vegetation into smaller fragments. After over a decade of regeneration efforts by the local Bushcare Group of volunteer members the site has been nearly restored to its former glory even though it will always need constant attention into the future. On the eastern side of the reserve a dense callitris woodland exists ''Callitris rhomboidea'' (Port Jackson pine) under which grow extensive native pasture and an open shrubbery. The majority of the site consists of semi-disturbed woodland dominated by ''Corymbia gummifera'' (red bloodwoods); ''Angophora costata'' (Sydney rosegum) and ''Eucalyptus haemastoma'' (scribbly gums). The majority of the site is on a very slight slope with few exposed rock and deep sandy soils except for the northern edge where massive boulders of Sydney sandstone protrude from a more steep hillside which has acted to preserve a more diverse groundcover. The southern edge and the center of the site have all been re-vegetated by Bushcare to a near-natural state with a variety of species and other species from the surrounding bushland are re-colonising these areas. A total of nearly 150 species of native flora have been recorded in the reserve.
