Batavia Road

Batavia Road is an anchorage, or roadstead, in the Pelsaert Group of the Houtman Abrolhos, off the coast of Western Australia. It is located at , on the eastern side of Pelsaert Island, near its southern end.〔Australia 1:100000 Topographic Survey, Map sheet 1640 (Edition 1): Abrolhos Special〕 It was discovered and named in April 1840 by John Clements Wickham, captain of HMS ''Beagle''. Wickham's assistant John Lort Stokes later wrote: In fact the ''Batavia'' was wrecked in the Wallabi Group, 60 kilometres (40 mi) to the north. The wreckage seen by the ''Beagle'' was either that of the ''Zeewyk'', or the unidentified wreck seen by the ''Zeewyk''s crew. The name ''Batavia Road'' is thus a misnomer, as are a number of other places named by Stokes, including Pelsaert Island, the Pelsaert Group, and Wreck Point. Stokes' erroneous view was accepted without question for over fifty years, and it has been claimed that the confusion caused set back the discovery of the ''Batavia'' shipwreck by over a century.〔
