Iconic Sydney
Book flights to Sydney and discover a city of blue skies, glistening waters, sun-kissed beaches and instantly recognisable landmarks.
At the heart of it all is the dazzling harbour, home to the world-famous Opera House and its unmistakeable sail-shaped roof.
Sydney is justly famed for its beaches – and with more than 100 to choose from, there’s one for every mood. Soak up the sights at Bondi, hop on the ferry to Manly, or escape the crowds at Clovelly.
This is a city where life revolves around these golden stretches of sand. Every summer sees a packed calendar of events – learn to surf, enjoy a lazy family day or browse a farmer’s market.
Sydneysiders love a good party, as evidenced in the city’s lively nightlife. Make a beeline for Surry Hills or Newtown to hop between eclectic restaurants and buzzy venues. Sydney has made New Year’s Eve its own and watching the spectacular fireworks light up the harbour is an experience you will never forget.

Reasons to visit Sydney
Hit The Rocks
Standing in the shadow of the Harbour Bridge, roam the cobblestone lanes of The Rocks to discover many of Sydney’s best-loved independent restaurants.
Enjoy a light lunch or pick up some street food and trinkets at one of the open-air Rocks Markets. Afterwards, stroll to Circular Quay to watch the buskers in action and explore the beautiful Royal Botanic Gardens.
Be sure to pay a visit to Sydney’s most famous vantage point, Mrs Macquarie’s Point, to take in breathtaking views of the harbour.
Beautiful Blue Mountains
Just a couple of hours away from Sydney are the Blue Mountains. This stunning national park is home to a host of walking trails and dramatic rock formations including the famed Three Sisters.
There’s a rainforest area to explore, via cable car or the Scenic Railway, the world’s steepest passenger train. If you have time, join a tour to the nearby Jenolan Caves – where the limestone formations date back more than 300 million years.
The charming town of Katoomba, with its cosy cafes and quirky bookshops, is also worth spending a few hours exploring.
Discover stunning beaches
Bondi is one of the world’s most famous beaches – filled with surfers, coffee spots and boutique shops. This sweeping crescent of white sand is only a short bus or train ride from the heart of the city.
While Bondi is the best-known, there are plenty more Sydney beaches worth seeking out. Take the coastal walk from Bondi to Coogee to enjoy amazing clifftop views. Popular Manly is a short ferry ride from Circular Quay, while at Bronte you can take a dip in its invigorating ocean pool.

Local cuisine
You’ll find every type of global cuisine in Sydney, ranging from traditional fine dining experiences to laidback pizzerias and cafes. There’s a strong Asian influence – pad Thai is a Sydney staple – while for fresh seafood head to one of the restaurants at Sydney Fish Market, one of the largest of its kind in the world.
