What to expect

  1. Sydney Harbour Bridge

    The Sydney Harbour Bridge is a steel through arch bridge in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, spanning Sydney Harbour from the central business district to the North Shore. The view of the bridge, the harbour, and the nearby Sydney Opera House is widely regarded as an iconic image of Sydney, and of Australia itself. Nicknamed "The Coathanger" because of its arch-based design, the bridge carries rail, vehicular, bicycle and pedestrian traffic.

  2. Sydney Opera House

    The Sydney Opera House is a multi-venue performing arts centre in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Located on the foreshore of Sydney Harbour, it is widely regarded as one of the world's most famous and distinctive buildings and a masterpiece of 20th-century architecture.

  3. Garden Island

    Garden Island is an inner-city locality of Sydney, Australia, and the location of a major Royal Australian Navy base. It is located to the north-east of the Sydney central business district and juts out into Port Jackson, immediately to the north of the suburb of Potts Point. Used for government and naval purposes since the earliest days of the colony of Sydney, it was originally a completely-detached island but was joined to the Potts Point shoreline by major land reclamation work during World War II.

  4. Rose Bay Beach

    Rose Bay is an affluent suburb on the shores of Sydney Harbour in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs. Located 7 km to the east of the Sydney central business district, Rose Bay enjoys views of both the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge together

  5. Shark Island

    Shark Island is an island located within Sydney Harbour, in New South Wales, Australia. The island is 1.5 hectares and lies off the Sydney suburbs of Point Piper, Rose Bay and Vaucluse, in the eastern section of the harbour between the Harbour Bridge and the harbour entrance. The island was known by the local Aboriginal people as Boambilly, and the current name comes from its shape, which is claimed to resemble a shark.

  6. Clark Island

    Located off the tip of prestigious Darling Point near Double Bay in Sydney’s eastern suburbs, the lovely Clark Island is less than a hectare in size.
    The island was cultivated as a vegetable garden in 1789 by Lieutenant Ralph Clark, who arrived with the First Fleet the year before. Though his vegetables were continually stolen the name Clark remains firmly attached to the island, which is now a recreational haven for Sydneysiders.
    Savour a tranquil picnic lunch while you soak up Clark Island’s exceptional vistas and historic surroundings. Or wander its bushland pathways and indulge in some of the city’s best Opera House and Harbour Bridge views.

  7. Sydney Harbour

    One of the world’s most beautiful natural harbours, Sydney Harbour is famed for its sparkling waters, iconic sights, spectacular events and hundreds of kilometres of shoreline. Sydney Harbour is also a working harbour with a thriving maritime industry that supports the city’s economic development.
    Australia’s busiest waterway, Sydney Harbour sees thousands of recreational, passenger and working vessels share the water with around 1200 large commercial vessels each year, including the cruise ships that call into Sydney’s two cruise terminals: the Overseas Passenger Terminal and White Bay Cruise Terminal.
