The Skillion

The Skillion is a prominent coastal headland and lookout at the southern end of Terrigal Beach on the New South Wales Central Coast. Rising steeply above the ocean, it offers panoramic views of Terrigal, Wamberal and the Pacific coastline. Accessible via a short steep walking track with stairs, it is known for sunrise and sunset viewing, photography and coastal sightseeing. The headland is a natural landmark within the Central Coast local government area.

Visitors can expect a short steep walk with stairs leading to an exposed cliff-top lookout above Terrigal Haven and Terrigal Beach. The summit provides open 270-degree views of the coastline, ocean and surrounding suburbs. The setting is natural and windswept with rocky cliffs, native coastal vegetation and no built structures beyond the walking track, stairs and viewing area. Visitors can explore the lookout platform, take photographs and continue along coastal walking connections.

The Skillion is a natural coastal headland within Darkinjung Country that has long served as a prominent landmark at Terrigal. It has been developed as a public lookout with a formalised walking track and viewing area and remains a well-known natural feature of the Terrigal coastline.

Located on Darkinjung Country, the headland and surrounding coastline form part of the cultural landscape of the Central Coast. Today it is a valued community lookout and scenic landmark used for recreation, sightseeing and photography by residents and visitors.
