The site for HMAS CERBERUS was first recommended by Admiral Sir Reginald Henderson KCB RN after an extensive search of the Australian coastline to find suitable locations for major Naval bases. He proposed that a base be established on Hann's Inlet between Sandy Point and Stony Point on Westernport Bay. The base was officially opened in September 1920.
