Great lookout with ample parking that forms part of “The Coastal Walk” with hang-gliding and parasailing take off ramp plunging off the cliff edge… Limited seating options that boast stunning views to the north, but there are no toilets available… One of the central Coast's more popular whale-watching view points...

This lookout offers great view over the ocean, and it also has a gliding & paragliding launch point. You can also follow the Coast Track down to Bateau Bay Beach, or the other way to Wyrrabalong Lookout.

Fantastic lookout, has been landscaped since I last visited 17 years ago.

Crackneck Point Lookout offers stunning coastal views, perfect for whale watching and relaxing. A peaceful spot with walking trails, picnic areas, and breathtaking ocean scenery.

Wonderful lookout that is well kept. Offers 180 degree views of the ocean with barely any obstruction. Perfect for whale watching although does get very busy during the season. Picnic tables and plenty of seating available. No toilets and plenty of parking. Lovely walking tracks in both direction (towards foresters beach or towards Shelly beach).

Good spot for watching the moonrise, or for a bit of whale spotting. Great view across Bateau bay to Shelley beach, and all the way to Nora lighthouse.

Stumbled upon this spot by accident. It was beautiful with nice amenities and well maintained. I can’t wait to go back with a picnic and enjoy the view.
