You will get an expansive view over Shelley Beach and The Entrance and of course, the ocean! There is also a grassy area and picnic tables located at the lookout, so pack a picnic and make a day of it!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Experts also recommend that an early start is ideal to spot a whale as the sea is more likely calmer, it\u2019s easier to see the whale\u2019s tell-tale tail or \u2018blow\u2019 against a flatter ocean. But remember you will be looking directly into the sun so don\u2019t forget to pack your sunnies!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>To get all the latest in news, entertainment and lifestyle on the Central Coast, follow Star 104.5 on&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/star1045\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Instagram here<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>WATCH: Wake up with a laugh and join&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/rabbitandsarah\/\"><strong><em>Rabbit &amp; Sarah for Breakfast<\/em><\/strong><\/a><strong><em>, weekdays, 6am-9am.&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/players.brightcove.net\/8394117001\/default_default\/index.html?videoId=6223623910001\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>WIN:&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/cms.star1045.com.au\/win\/rabbit-and-sarahs-secret-sound\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Win check out the latest on-air guesses Rabbit &amp; Sarah\u2019s $30,000 Secret Sound thanks to Harvey Norman Home Appliances!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Images:&nbsp;NSW National Parks \/ Jodie Lowe<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>By Bek Lougher<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Catch up on the latest episode of the Rabbit &amp; Sarah Podcast here!&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/omny.fm\/shows\/rabbit-and-sarah\/sarahs-date-night-15th-june-2021\/embed\" width=\"100%\" height=\"180\" frameborder=\"0\" title=\"Sarah's Date Night -
