Weipa, Queensland

Weipa 〔''Macquarie Dictionary, Fourth Edition'' (2005). Melbourne, The Macquarie Library Pty Ltd. ISBN 1-876429-14-3〕 is the largest town on the Gulf of Carpentaria coast of the Cape York Peninsula in Queensland, Australia. At the , Weipa had a population of 2,830; the largest community on Cape York Peninsula. It exists because of the enormous bauxite deposits along the coast. The ''Port of Weipa'' is mainly involved in exports of bauxite. Over the last decade or so there have been occasional shipments of live cattle from the port.
==Geography==
Weipa is just south of Duyfken Point, a location now agreed to be the first recorded point of European contact with the Australian continent. Dutch explorer Willem Janszoon, on his ship the ''Duyfken'', sighted the coast here in 1606. This was 164 years before Lieutenant James Cook sailed up the east coast of Australia.
