Great view to look at and a nice place to relax. Fishing spot too.
Beautiful, peaceful view. Plenty of park benches available to sit.
North Sydney harbor side with great views.
The location is at the base of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, offering uninterrupted views of Circular Quay and the Opera House. It's ideal for a short walk, photos, and picnics and connects to other areas along the Kirribilli foreshore. Public transport is recommended due to challenging parking, and there are nearby shops and eateries. Exploring hidden green spaces for quieter views is also a charming option. 🌉📸🏞️
View on Sydney Bay. Not to crowded, very small place ideal for a quiet stop
Amazing place. Would be perfect to come on a chill afternoon and have a nice picnic. Being a few mats, portable stove, and you are set to have a fantastic time with an amazing view of Sydney Harbour. Pretty much everything the city has to offer is in sight. The harbour bridge, opera house, darling harbour, CBD buildings, Luna Park.
Amazing panoramic view covering Opera house on one side and Harbour Bridge on the other side.
Great place to watch the sunset🌆🌉
Such a beautiful place. Can sit and stare at the view all day and night. Can see both the harbour bridge and the Opera house
Offers a great view of the eastern side of the harbour. Lots of bench seats to sit and take in the view. Best aspect to escape a westerly wind.
I've photographed many weddings and elopements at Copes lookout and it is a truly stunning spot with one of a kind harbour views. There's an option for shelter, picnic and endless photo opportunities! I would recommend it to anyone.
These photos were taken last week and has a special meaning to these two brides who traveled all the way from Singapore to get married.

Awesome place for refreshing your mind from hectic busy work life. Wish there are more parking spot there to park your car. I think need little more lights in the park area.
Sat by the water and was nicely shaded by trees. Saw a couple fisherman fishing also. Nice walk area with the dog.
Very beautiful lookout of the opera house and the harbour bridge on your right. If you walk further left (towards the front of Kirribili house) you will see a mini sea bath area with a tree and shade. Would be quite nice as a picnic place.
Waren bei tollem Wetter zum Sonnenuntergang an dieser perfekten Stelle um die Skyline von Sydney genießen zu können und es hat sich wirklich gelohnt.
Great spot to enjoy sunrise.
Excellent ferry stop with beautiful views of the harbour including the bridge and opera house. It’s actually a nice place to just sit and take it all in on a quiet weekend 🤩
I can’t believe it’s been nearly 9 years since my last visit here; Discovering this hidden gem in August of 2013, was a significant highlight as I wandered around Kirribilli.
On that day, I happened upon an angler who was here doing a spot of fishing with his pooch, and we struck up a quick and friendly chat. He said he'd caught a few fish. I didn't want to impede on him too much so I took a few quick snaps, and bookmarked the spot in my brain for a return on another day.
Well today was the triumphant return, and I suspect as I did back then, that many people still don’t know this serene sanctuary exists. It’s a large-ish location in terms of available seating and the unobscured view of Fort Dennison gives a photographer unparalleled perspective. If you get down there early enough with the tripod you could probably get a spectacular sunrise shot, that hasn't been done to death like every other vantage point in Sydney.

A beautiful little place to visit with a cup of coffee.
Always love it here. Plenty of spots to sit and read a book or pack a picnic blanket and some food and hang with friends or loved ones. Get the night mode engaged on your phone and get some super cute pics.
Lovely old lookout located next to Kirribilli house. steps lead down to waterfront with plenty of seating
Awesome look out and park area for picnics, relaxing or strolling around the harbour foreshore. Great views of the harbour bridge and the opera house. Access to Jeffrey Street ferry wharf. Street and bay parking available along Olympic Drive, metered but reasonable. Short walk from Milton’s Point train station and nearby shops.
A little hidden gem located at the end of the fence attached to the Prime Ministers home.
A quiet purpose built location on the water looking across Sydney Harbour suitable to have lunch at the tables or a chat with someone.
Local parking can be an issue on weekends and there are no close by toilets

Small park that lets you go all the way to the harbour rocks. Saw a couple of blokes fishing and others chilling on the benches. Not much else to see other than the water and fort denison on the right
Great place for a variety of situations from, general lookout, workout, wedding photos, picnics, walks or to sit and watch the harbour activity.
A short walk to Ferry Wharf or do yourself a favour walk across the bridge (or bike ride).
Walkway is on the east side and bike way the west.
When I was there I observed all of the above activities.
Even on a gloomy day, still looks spectacular.

An amazing view if the harbour and very relaxing parking can be hot or miss especially on weekends and alot better Monday to Thursday. An added bonus is public toilets near by which are generally clean. Luna park is just around the corner as well as the fairy wharf
One of the worlds most Iconic structures "Harbour Bridge" is just a stone throw distance from Jeffrey Street Wharf, and just the opposit of it is another famous building "Sydney Opera House"...
Every now and then I visit the place either for an evening or morning walk, just to relax or have a picnic with my friends & family. The view is just magnificent...
One can never have enough if it... just so beautiful..

Great location for views of Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. There's reasonable paid parking nearby, and one get here by public transport by getting Milsons Point station.
One of the Best views of the Sydney city skyline, opera house, Luna park and the famous harbour bridge that you'll find, there is a ferry station nearby and is just one of many spots you can fish off, there's decent parking if you can get it but it's metered and it's not a bad place for a walk or exercise. This location is a really good sport for watching New Years Eve fireworks.
Oh I loved it there the view of the Harbor Bridge is amazing and also you can see the Opera House. I love going there with my family and just relax on the big grass hill
If you walk past Killibilli House and Admiralty House you'll come across this lookout. You can see views east across Sydney Harbour towards Neutral Bay, Cremorne and Mosman. There is a small park with seating here. The steps lead down to the water's edge. There are no toilets here. And this is not a wheelchair friendly location. The lookout was named after Zara Eileen Hore-Ruthven, the Countess of Gowrie (1879-1965). She was the Irish-born wife of the 1st Earl of Gowrie, who was the Governor of South Australia between 1928 & 1934 and the Governor of New South Wales in 1935 & 1936. He was the longest serving Governor-General of Australia 1936-44. Zara Eileen Hore-Ruthven was renowned for her work in promoting the welfare of children in Australia. Lady Gowrie was also a keen horticulturist. She planted a tree in this location as she departed Australia in 1944.
The best spot to photograph Sydney’s most iconic landmarks, the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge. The ferry service is bad though, so you might want to take the Milsons Point Wharf to get here instead.
