Shep's Mound

Nice place to experience the sights, sounds, and if the wind is from the right direction, smells of commercial aviation. It is possible to achieve reasonable photographs of the aircraft even with an entry-level smart phone like I have, with a good DSLR camera with a long lens great photographs could be taken.The site includes parking for around 20 cars, the elevated viewing area is accessed by a well-paved, gently sloping path. A small shelter with benches is provided, unfortunately there are no public toilets here, as far as I could see. There is no practical public transport to the site, those who don't drive will have to resort to a taxi or ride-share.

Best place for aviation spotting and photography!

Not too bad but you can’t see the domestic runway and you don’t get a nice view it’s better if you can see from the other side but it’s nice for a chilling

As an avid self proclaimed avgeek. This location is perfect for any spotter or would be enthusiasts. When runways 16R/34L are in use you can see narrow to large bodied aircraft rotate in front of you. Plenty of parking and a great place to bring kids.

Good place to park and watch airplanes if you're waiting to pick up someone from the airport. Only 12 min drive from the international terminal and it has plenty of parking

Took the kids for a spot of plane spotting. ✈️Great spot to see incoming/outgoing planes taxiing on the runway.Plenty of parking spaces available and also lots seating for the ‘spotting’ part too.

Such a beautiful place.We can saw the airplane land realtime views.

Great place to watch the planes and take the kids to see.Would be even better if you could see the other side of the runway and if there was a picnic and playground area but honestly, highly recommended (especially for that little pilot in the making)

Lovely spot for watching planes land and take off at the Kingsford Smith Airport at Sydney. Parking space available most of the time. Kids will surely enjoy it. Ideally one can spend 15 to 30 minutes if they are a plain spotter and an aviation enthusiast who is interested in having a closer look of planes land and take off. There’s a view point with shelter; so if it’s raining also one can still enjoy the view.
