A premier whale watching lookout on the cliffs of Kamay Botany Bay National Park in southern Sydney. From June to November humpback and southern right whales pass close to the headland on their annual migration. The viewing platform offers uninterrupted ocean views with information boards explaining whale behaviour and migration patterns. Even outside whale season the dramatic coastal scenery and birdlife make this a worthwhile visit.
