Why it's worth checking out
Dockside Lookout sits on Holman Street in Kangaroo Point, one of Brisbane's lovely riverside inner suburbs beneath the iconic cliffs, near the Dockside precinct. With 7 reviews behind its 4.4 rating, it's a much-loved spot.
The appeal is a lovely outlook over the river and city — a lookout with lovely views across the Brisbane River and the CBD skyline, a genuine favourite for taking in the scenery, a photo or simply soaking up the setting near the ferry terminal in the pleasant Kangaroo Point area. It's a lovely, free outing.
Riverside lookouts have changing conditions, tides and seasonal considerations, so check current details before you go. Otherwise it's a free spot to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring sun protection, water, comfortable shoes and your camera.
