It depends on whether one is referring to the mainland, islands or just Australian territory.

The southernmost point on mainland Australia is South Point, on Wilson's Promontory, in Victoria (39°08' S).

Of all the states, Tasmania, being the island state of Australia, has Australia's southernmost point, which is South East Cape.

However, Bishop and Clerk Islets, south of Macquarie Island (considered part of Tasmania), actually mark the southernmost point of Australia, not counting the Australian Antarctic Territory.
