Positioned atop a rocky outcrop, Lamberts Lookout provides glorious 360-degree views along the coast and out to the National Park islands of the Cumberland group.
Named after one of Mackay’s greats, Samel Lambert, who arrived in Mackay in 1880 and became a Council alderman and Mayor, Lamberts Beach and Lamberts Lookout were places where the Lambert company picnics were held over a century ago.
But with an even richer history is the settlement of Slade Point itself. Named Point Slade in 1770 by James Cook, it was a postwar residential area, established due to its proximity to the Mackay Harbour and popularity as a seaside destination.
