Cape Tribulation in Australia was named by Captain James Cook in 1770 during his voyage along the eastern coast. He named it because it was here that his ship, the Endeavour, ran into trouble with the reefs, leading to a challenging situation for the crew. The name reflects the difficulties encountered during this part of the journey, as "tribulation" signifies hardship and struggle.
