Sublime Point Lookout

Sublime Point Lookout is a cliff-top viewpoint on the Illawarra Escarpment in Austinmer, within the City of Wollongong, New South Wales. Located in the Illawarra Escarpment State Conservation Area at the end of Sublime Point Road, it offers elevated panoramic views over the Wollongong coastline, Pacific Ocean and escarpment forests. Notable for its hang-gliding launch platform, walking track access and picnic facilities, it is a popular stop for sightseeing and photography.

Visitors can expect an elevated, fenced lookout platform on the edge of the Illawarra Escarpment with expansive views north and south along the coastline, over Austinmer, Thirroul and Wollongong to the Pacific Ocean. The site is set in open forest within the Illawarra Escarpment State Conservation Area, with a sealed car park, picnic tables, interpretive signage and a hang-gliding launch ramp. The steep Sublime Point walking track connects the lookout to Austinmer below. The area is primarily for sightseeing, photography and watching hang gliders launch when conditions allow.
