Sydney beaches
Australia’s most famous beach, Bondi, offers something for everyone – surf lessons, clifftop walks, a beachfront promenade for jogging plus great cafes, bars and beachware shops. It's just one of the city's great ocean beaches. Check out Coogee, Manly, Narrabeen, Palm Beach and Tamarama.
Best Sydney attractions
There's an endless list of things to do to in Sydney for visitors of all ages. Famous beaches close to the city centre, wildlife in harbourside zoos and wildlife parks, shopping and fabulous events.
At the top of any must-do list is a trip on Sydney Harbour. Board a ferry or cruise from Circular Quay or Darling Harbour, and just sit back and soak up the sights. Make sure you take the short ferry-ride to Manly Beach from Circular Quay and enjoy a day at the beach.
The next must-do is a climb to the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge from where you'll enjoy vistas stretching from the Pacific Ocean to the Blue Mountains. Don't miss Australia's number one attraction, the Sydney Opera House to take a tour or enjoy a performance. To get a better understanding of Sydney’s colourful colonial and convict past, take a self-guided walk around the historic The Rocks or head to the Museum of Sydney nearby. The Royal Botanic Gardens, overlooking Sydney Harbour, is a beautiful oasis of rare plants and meandering pathways in the heart of the city.
Located in spectacular harbourside locations are WILD LIFE Sydney, Sydney Aquarium, Oceanworld Manly and Taronga Zoo, perched overlooking the harbour.
After all that sightseeing, you’ll want to relax in one of Sydney’s great pubs, bars or restaurants, or enjoy some retail therapy in the city centre. Don't forget to find out what's on in Sydney and you could be off to see a new show or a blockbuster exhibition at an art gallery.
