This headland lookout is one of many beautiful spots in Noosa National Park. Lion Rock rises just 15 to 20 metres offshore to the north, separated from the mainland by a deep channel, while Devils Kitchen drops down to the south in a steep-sided rocky gorge. The tip of the headland offers views down the coast in both directions, and the turbulent water churning between the rock formations is impressive, especially during a swell. Keep your eyes on the water from here, as dolphins, turtles, and humpback whales during migration season are all regularly spotted from this stretch of coastline.
