LOVE EVERY SECOND OF SYDNEY
Set around the world’s largest natural harbour, Sydney is the most well-known of Australia’s cities, and with good reason. The gateway to Australia, cosmopolitan Sydney is one of the world’s most vibrant, innovative and beautiful destinations showcasing the best of both worlds where the hustle and bustle of a busy city lifestyle meets the relaxation of beautiful Sydney beaches.
Things to do in Darling Harbour and surrounds
For marvellous entertainment, delicious waterside dining and amazing wildlife, Darling Harbour is the perfect destination in the heart of Sydney. Meet penguins and dugongs at SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium and get up close to koalas and a giant saltwater crocodile at WILD LIFE Sydney Zoo.
You’ll find plenty more exciting things to do and see, from Sydney Harbour cruises and tall ships at the Australian National Maritime Museum to the Chinese Garden of Friendship, a tranquil haven. You can even walk the red carpet with your favourite star at Madame Tussauds, a wax museum.
The events calendar is wonderful all year and you can see world-class shows at ICC Sydney, a convention, exhibition and theatre complex. There are special attractions for the kids, too. Darling Quarter Kids Playground has climbing ropes, slides, swings, flying foxes and water games.
The food and wine experiences are delectable, with waterfront restaurants, alfresco cafes and trendy bars along the waterfront at Cockle Bay, King Street Wharf and Harbourside, where there are souvenir shops and fashion boutiques. And you can dance the night away at funky nightclubs, too.
The lively precinct is next to Barangaroo and Pyrmont, only 10 minutes’ walk from Town Hall Station in the city centre, and a stroll from Chinatown. You can also travel by light rail or a ferry to Darling Harbour.
Located in the Rocks is one of the most sought-after activities in Sydney - the BridgeClimb. This spectacular activity allows you to climb a national icon, get uninterrupted panoramic views of Sydney harbour and learn more about Sydney and it's surrounds than you could ever imagine.
