Otter Crest Scenic Viewpoint is a great way to soak in the view from 500 feet above the ocean on a breathtaking crescent sweep of white sandy beach stretching to the south. Cape Foul weather is stunning and inspirational with its picturesque promontory. This popular whale watching spot also provides a good view of the Devil's Punchbowl environs. Visitors can almost imagine Captain Cook's first sighting on that stormy March day in 1778. The adjacent gift shop is privately owned.
