First, I should precise I had not visited an aquarium for a very very very long time before going to Sydney Aquarium in Darling Harbour. It might be one of the reasons why I was so amazed there... but for sure the other reasons are just because this aquarium is great!
We went there at 8PM (the aq…

A nice, spacious beer hall that has a variety of quality European beers on tap. Not to mention their fruit flavored beers which looked pretty good. A cool place to hang out. They serve food too, although I haven't had the chance to try it. Maybe next time =)

Arriving at Cockatoo Island you are greeted by a volunteer and handed a map of the island. To tour the island by yourself is free (don't forget to pay for your ferry ticket!!) but an audio tour is available for a low cost of $5. Simply ask the volunteer and they will get you organised.
I took th…

When I was in Australia, I went to Sydney for ANZAC Day weekend. One of the things I did while I was there was the Weird Sydney Tour.
The tour begins at night, and you ride around the city in a hearse named Elvira, which is renovated into limo seating. The tour lasts about 3 hours and you're ta…

Hornby Lighthouse is the third oldest lighthouse in Australia. It is located at the entrance of Sydney Harbour, on the north of Watson's Bay.
It was built after the tragic wrecking of the Dunbar, and first lit in 1858. It stands 9 metres above ground level and 27.4 meters above the sea level.

The Macquarie Lighthouse is the oldest lighthouse of Australia as it had been built first in 1818, then replicated stronger in 1883. I read it is also the best-known.
It is 26 meters high, elevated at 105 metres above the sea level.
It is closed but visits are allowed as I read that tours are or…

When you read travel reviews about Sydney, hardly anyone ever mentions Oceanworld. Everyone recommends going to the Sydney Aquarium. This is because Oceanworld is not even in the same league as the Sydney Aquarium! But Oceanworld does have something going for it... Shark Dive Xtreme!
If you lo…

The Shangra La Hotel is situated in Circular Quay in Sydney, it has a cocktail bar on floor 36 with the most amazing view of the Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge, it is pricey but well worth the visit, even if you only have 1 drink just to take in the view and remember dont forget your camera..…

We had free vouchers to go to watch whale with True Blue Cruises. Normal price is 75$.
We left Darling Harbour around 9.30AM, went through Sydney Harbour to go to the ocean. The ocean went very choppy there...
Do not forget to take tablets not to be sick... 3/4 of the people were sick on the …

The Sydney Opera House is iconic for its location. Jutting out into sydney Harbour with the Harbour Bridge as its backdrop, the Opera House is a marker saying "This is Sydney". From a distance the sails of the Opera House are extraordinary, especially on a beautiful blue sky day from Potts Point (wh…

When I went on a ferry for the first time in Sydney Harbour, I saw a small lighthouse I found "cute". As it is part of a very nice walk with a great view on the tourist attractions of Sydney Harbour (Opera, Bridge, City), I did the walk the day after ^^
There is the same lighthouse a bit further, s…

I've often wanted to go up Sydney Tower to see the views over Sydney, but never before shelled out the $25 it costs. This time we did, getting the mandatory combined ticket of OzExperience and the Observation deck. The OzExperience was one of the most painful characterisations of Australia I have ev…
