Why it's worth checking out
The Waverley Cemetery Lookout sits along the coast near Clovelly and Bronte, on Sydney's eastern beaches. A near-perfect 4.9 rating from 83 reviews reflects its standing as a genuine highlight.
The appeal is breathtaking coastal scenery — a lookout beside the historic clifftop Waverley Cemetery, taking in sweeping ocean views along the famous Bondi-to-Coogee coastal walk, a perfect spot to pause, take a photo, watch the surf or spot whales in season. It's a genuine highlight for walkers and view-seekers.
Coastal paths 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, water and take your time soaking up the views.
