Why it's worth checking out
Mary Booth Lookout Reserve sits on Waruda Street in Kirribilli, on Sydney's lower north shore. A superb 4.8 rating from 678 reviews reflects just how special the outlook is from this much-loved harbourside spot.
The appeal is the view — sweeping vistas across Sydney Harbour, taking in the Harbour Bridge, the Opera House and the city skyline, all from a peaceful green reserve away from the crowds. It's a brilliant, free place for a picnic, a stroll or simply soaking up one of the world's great harbours.
Parks and reserves can have changing facilities and conditions, so check current details before you go. It's a free, easygoing spot to enjoy whenever the weather's clear — and especially lovely around sunset or when the harbour is lit up.
