Top Reasons to Go to Sydney

Glorious Beaches: Sydneysiders are besotted by the beach, and you'll be, too. With 40 to choose from, including world-famous Bondi, you can watch surfers ride the waves or paddle around the calmer waters of a sheltered harbor beach.

Exquisite Dining: Sydney restaurants are among the finest eateries in the world. The harbor shines with gems like Aria and Guillaume at Bennelong, and mouth-watering smells waft though the air in the trendy food burbs of Surry Hills and Darlinghurst.

A Harbor Sail: Take a ferry, sail a yacht, or paddle a kayak, but make sure you get out in Sydney Harbour. It's a glorious sight. Check out the Sydney Harbour section for tours of the harbor by boat.

National Parks and Wildlife: Sydney's untamed beauty is close at hand. See native birds and colorful wildflowers just a few miles from the city; you may even spot a kangaroo in the Royal National Park.
