Why it's worth checking out
Johnstons Lookout sits at Vaucluse, one of Sydney's beautiful harbourside eastern suburbs. With 30 reviews behind its 4.0 rating, it's a much-loved spot.
The appeal is a lovely outlook over the harbour — a lookout with lovely views across Sydney Harbour and its surrounds, a genuine favourite for taking in the scenery, a photo or simply soaking up the setting in the gorgeous Vaucluse area. It's a lovely, free outing.
Harbourside lookouts have changing conditions and seasonal considerations, so check current details before you go. Otherwise it's a free spot to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring water, sun protection, comfortable shoes and your camera.
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 4.0 from 30 reviews is Google's visitor rating, shown separately and never altered by us.
