Amazing view. Gliders are flying there and there is a landing area for them where you can chill and enjoy the view. Due to covid, parking is closed.

Stunning views. Great parking facilities. Close to Stanwell Park Beach. See hang gliders and sea cliff bridge from the lookout.

This place has got a spectacular view with sea on one side and lush green mountains on the other. The natural colours of blue and green are a visual treat to the human eye. There are tables to sit and enjoy the view. You can spend hours together if the weather permits. It's calm peaceful and serene. This place has also got ample parking. On some days during the week there is para gliding at this spot.

Beautiful view! Located at the south side of Sydney. Adventure activities like hand gliding and para-gliding are available.

A must see place for everyone. Tourists please make it a point to visit this. Gorgeous views and breathtaking sea line. The place keeps on getting more popular and the car park is overflowing during weekends. But it keeps on moving. Keep your camera ready.
