The new parking spaces are very small and there is no where to turn around if there are no spaces available when you reach the top of the carpark. I can see cars getting damaged by other parked cars in the future. The grassed area and sandstone walls are great for sitting but it's definitely been at the expense of the car park.

Uncover the secret of local whale watchers and surfers at Crackneck Point lookout. Make a beeline for this atmospheric lookout between May and August and you may just be rewarded with views of whales swimming past on their northern migration, and surfers can check out wave conditions.Crackneck Point lookout is a fantastic place for a photo stop or picnic at any time of year. Spread out a rug on the grass or set up at one of the picnic tables. You’ll be surrounded by panoramic views of Shelly Beach, which continue along the Central Coast past Norah Head, Tuggerah Lake and The Entrance. It’s a popular spot for hang gliding, so look up to the sky to see them drifting through the air.If you’re feeling energetic after a picnic lunch, why not take a short walk along The Coast walking track? The track stretches north for about 2km to Bateau Bay Beach picnic area, or south to Forresters Beach, about 1.5km away.

Nice cliff, amazing views and good spot for whale watching (winter), trekking or just chill.In summer might be a little hot because there are no shade spots.Free parking to leave the car and just enjoy the mother nature.It's nice and quiet. There are picnic tables too.

Not a peaceful place on a sunny day at the weekend! Absolutely jam packed, with cars struggling to pass each other on the road because people have parked both sides all the way down past the gate. Not a great spot for whale watching as it's set back from the waters edge. The renovation is great but now it's a tourist spot!

This is the place to paraglide. Of course you need a certificate pilots PG3 to launch. But come and wounder at the gliders flying.

Looks much better since the refurbishment. Hopefully, the horrible, potholed road getting there will be repaired.

Great views but Poor design, zero amenities, should have only Disability parking to encourage walking, save narrow road and avoid pollution.
