Nice area Chris, you should have some great viewing down there.
Some good binocular objects to begin with would be any Messier list and many NGC objects as well.
Some easy starter objects could be:
- Antares - red giant
- Sirius - bluewhite, brightest star in the sky
- Alpha centauri - double star
- Omega centauri - globular
- 47 Tucanae - globular
- Carina nebula
- Orion nebula
- Tarantula nebula
- The moon - obvious
- And of course - Andromeda galaxy in October (10deg. above due north)
After these the skies the limit, sorry I had to say that.
