Description

Located in Coffs Harbour, the Eastern Side Lookout is a must-visit spot for anyone exploring the region.

It is a short walk from the Muttonbird Island outdoor learning space along a paved walkway. As you walk along the track to the lookout, you'll notice open entrances to Muttonbird burrows. It's important to stay on the track as the burrows are fragile, and the plant cover provides little protection from cave-ins, which can be disastrous for the birds.

Once you reach the Eastern Side Lookout, you'll be greeted with unimpeded views of the Solitary Islands Marine Park all year round. On a clear day, you can see all the way along the north coast to South West Rocks in the south and north to Woolgoolga.

Along the way, there is signage that explains the lifecycle of these migratory birds. Observing these birds can be a fascinating experience for both kids and adults alike. The Eastern Side Lookout is easily accessible from Coffs Harbour, with options for car, bike, or foot travel. The walkway is well-maintained, and the distance of the walk is reasonable for adults and children alike. Eastern Side Lookout Coffs Harbour is a nature lover's paradise with unending views of the Solitary Islands Marine Park and migratory birds. It's a scenic spot that should be included in every Coffs Harbour travel itinerary.
