Why it's worth checking out
The Cahill Walk Lookout sits above Circular Quay in the heart of Sydney's CBD, along the elevated Cahill Expressway walkway. With 160 reviews behind its 4.7 rating, it's a much-loved viewpoint.
The appeal is spectacular harbour views — an elevated walkway and lookout taking in sweeping outlooks over Circular Quay, the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge, a genuine highlight and a lovely, lesser-known spot for photos. It's a wonderful way to take in the icons of Sydney Harbour.
Walkways and lookouts have changing conditions and can be exposed, so check current details if you're planning around something specific. Otherwise it's a free, spectacular spot to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring sun protection and take your time soaking up the views.
Spot Score
The Spot Score is our composite of five signals — two about the venue's standing with visitors and three about how complete and current this listing is. It is not a visitor rating and not a verdict on the food or the experience. The 4.7 from 160 reviews is Google's visitor rating, shown separately and never altered by us.
