On 26 January 1788, just six days after the First Fleet had departed from Botany Bay and headed north to Port Jackson, French explorer Le Compte de Laperouse arrived at Botany Bay.
None. The convicts did not settle at Botany Bay, but at Port Jackson.
They were brought ashore after the ships moved from Botany Bay to Sydney Harbour.
When the First Fleet arrived in Botany Bay, it was the middle of summer, so the river now known as the Georges River was not flowing at its peak, and was still saltwater where it entered Botany Bay. What could be seen if the river did not look like enough water to sustain the hundreds of people who would be colonising the land.
Botany Bay is in Australia.
The answer is obviously supposed to be 1788, but this would be incorrect.The First Fleet arrived at Botany Bay on 18 January 1788(not 26 January) but did not stay there. Captain Arthur Phillip noted that Botany Bay was unsuitable for settlement, so he moved the First Fleet further north to Port Jackson (where Sydney now stands), arriving there on 26 January 1788.
The First Fleet refers to the first fleet of eleven ships which arrived in Australia in January 1788, carrying convicts, officers, marines and their families. They arrived at Botany Bay but then moved to Port Jackson, now known as Sydney, New South Wales, to establish a convict colony.
Botany Bay is in New South Wales.
