A short walk from the Burleigh Heads entry to the National park this lookout offers panoramic views up and down the coast as well as out to sea. During the winter months you’re likely to see whales as they migrate from Antarctica to warmer waters. The track is paved however there are quite a few steps and it is uneven in places, but definitely worthwhile. Refuel afterwards at one of the many cafes in Burleigh.
Very nice lookoout. The way there leads through the national park. From the lookout you have a very nice view of the sea and with a bit of luck you can spot some whales.

My kids loved it and my hubby. There's a cool nook that had a few kids playing soccer. Cute.

Great scenic location, I enjoyed flying my drone from the lookout. However please be mindful to obey ALL drone regulations including staying 30 metres away from all people laterally. Peaceful, rarely overcrowded.

I am always interested in shipping and you can’t see the ships at the wharf from here but to watch the skills of the port workers moving the shipping containers is amazing. Great look out with views over Botony bay. Lots of parking, no toilets. No fishing. Gates locked at sunset

The view to the Southwest remains amazing. Sadly, the trees have blocked the views in all other directions.
Stunning. If you have international visitors, bring them to this place. Great signage explaining Aboriginal names and creation stories. In the colder season, whales are visible from the Big Burleigh.
Good luck with finding a parking space.

Nice lookout of the city, heaps of parking. Don’t worry if the pictures make it look like a long walk, about 30secs or a minute with a photoshop.

Great and quite pretty pier to get beautiful views. It's a rather short stop just to enjoy the panorama. Definitely worth to stop if you're passing that place on your way.

Plenty of parking lots but do go early in the morning as it can get crowded later in the day
Do note that the trail starts at the parking lot area, don’t make the same mistake as me by just following the map
The walk itself around 1km to view both the Jeddibrum and tumgun lookout
If you’re more adventurous you can choose to walk the entire trail
Brilliant location for ship watching...you might find a ship lumber past every couple hours

Nice views, blue skies. The beach is quite private, though considering I went on a weekday explains it. It was a little windy and sunny.

Amazing little lookout with veiws for miles across all of Coffs, just 6 klms off the main highway up a winding road. Plenty of seating both under cover and outside for a picnic and an awesome little Cafe with an assortment of snacks and delicious coffee 😋 Definitely worth the detour on your way out of Coffs Harbour
Amazing view of the Coffs Harbour and surrounding mountains. Sunrise in here must be spectacular. Road to the lookout is well established. Parking available on site.
A picnic shed, toilets available to use.

Went here on New Year’s Eve and was surprised by the view. Could see a clear view of parramatta, Olympic park and Rhodes at some angles. It was good to see that they had some fireworks as well for the occasion

Great spot to see anchored ship and plane landing and taxing at the same time

The breathtaking panoramic views from the lookout are nothing short of spectacular, offering a perfect vantage point to admire nature's beauty. The well-maintained facilities and clean surroundings contribute to a serene atmosphere that enhances the overall visit.

The staff's friendliness and eagerness to assist added a personal touch to my visit. Their knowledge about the area and willingness to share local insights made the experience even more enriching. I appreciate the efforts invested in ensuring visitors feel welcomed and informed.

What sets Molineaux Point Lookout apart is the thoughtful amenities provided. The strategically placed benches and shaded areas create comfortable spots to relax and soak in the scenery. The interpretive signage adds educational value, making it an ideal destination for both nature enthusiasts and families.

The well-marked trails make exploring the area a joy, and the lookout itself is accessible, making it suitable for individuals of all ages. Additionally, the cleanliness of the facilities, including restrooms and picnic areas, reflects the dedication to maintaining a high standard for visitors.

In conclusion, Molineaux Point Lookout stands out as a gem in its category.

Forest sky pier is only few minutes away from Big banana. The road to big banana is bit narrow and have to climb the hill. On the way we saw lots of banana plantations.
The sky pier is free to enter. The best place to see the Coffs Harbour. This attraction has shade and seating arrangements for picnic and is equipped with toilets too.
What a great place to see and relax. We do occasionally come here a few times just to visit the views and talking with others around.

A beautiful spot. I walked in from Binna Burra, it is approximately 27km return and reasonably flat. I stayed on the main track but you can combine the walk with the Coomera Falls walk or the Mt Hobwee. It is normally a bit cooler up here than down on the coast, especially if a southerly is blowing. You can also reach this lookout from O'Reilly's as well.
Gorgeous, family friendly park.

If you’re after a quiet and beautiful day at the park this is a great place.

Even if you’re driving by and need to stop to get some fresh air, the Terry Road Lookout is just the place. You could park your car abs take in the green meadow like park surrounds.

The lookout has enough space to park 5 or 6 cars and in addition you could park on the street too.

There is a children play area and a designated dog park in the grounds as well.

The park has a beautiful view of the suburban landscape and makes a wonderful picnic spot. The perfect cozy setting for a sunny day in the park.

Hadn't been there since the 1980s and was surprised had to pay to drive in to lookout area. Not sure who the money goes to but is a lot better maintained and was interesting to see how the city view has changed. Back in my younger years it was a place for hooning, having a few beers, and a bit of graffiti. Today it was just coffee and cake and a bit of a stroll!

Nice place for a view of Botany bay , this strip was once used in a scene from a very old movie called Running on Empty and some illegal drag racing used to happen there on occasion

….but wow fast forward to 2023 NSW nanny state in full force with so many signs now telling you what you can’t do here lol
Treat those pics as a laugh

WOW! I went on a bit of a rainy day (it was sunny at first but then drizzled a bit) and it was amazing! The gloomy vibe added extra beauty to this already-beautiful walk. I did the loop track.

We did the loop walk on a weekend with three generations and all managed very well with the walk only taking circa,3 hours. Jibbon Beach and Shelley Beach are highlights with the entire walk being very picturesque. An excellent viewing platform and information to appreciate Aboringinal rock carvings part way along. We stayed in Cronulla planning to catch the Ferry to Bundeena however rough seas meant the Ferry did not operate so driving to Bundeena and parking was just as easy. Great cafes in Bundeena to have breakfast, lunch or coffee before or after walking. Highly recommend the walk and Bundeena for a relaxing day.

This place is amazing. You can come with your partner and enjoy the stunning beauty here. The best thing is you can bring your car and park it on the lot and enjoy the view sitting in your car !

It's not much to explore when arrived here at dawn. The sunset cast with the broad horizon was simply breathtaking this evening.

I drove past this lookout a lot and there's always visitors or tradies park here and enjoy the amazing views with their lunch.

The sunset this evening so pretty that it possibly a sign of good weather ahead but also a sign of saying the winter is on its way.

Jebbribillum lookout is really good point to get great photo shoots in Burleigh Heads national Park. There are a couple of other look-out points also but can't see this part of the beach. İt's the first stop when you start trekking inside the park.

Enter fees are 7$. The view is wonderful and there is the garden where you can walk. The place is great, you can have something to eat there while watching the sunset over the city. This place is peaceful and comfortable. It has a good location and it is not far away from the city.

Charged $7 to enter, expecting wonderful views and some walks, bitterly disappointed (not by the views) but by the lack of anything else. The maze must be incredible given you need to pay another $7 to enter. I’d rather get lost in that then spend anymore time walking in circles around the restaurant.
Worth noting on the way out tyre spikes have been installed to prevent the avoidance of $7 entry free.
A nice quiet place to come and relax and have a picnic on the grass or just for a few minutes to take in the views of the comcast expanse of the Pacific Ocean. But that's not why you come here. You come here to see the massive ships enter and head to the port.

Fantastic coast views. Lots of birds. The Jibbon head track is mostly a sand track through bushes with few views, but the end near the head is worth it.
