Sydney Harbour is commonly referred to as the most beautiful natural harbour in the world. The harbour is 240 kilometres of shoreline with approximately 54 square kilometers of water. It is possible to walk around much of the harbour edge and picnic in many spots.
On a warm sunny day the harbour is spotted with hundreds of sailing boats, cruise boats and ferries. Sydney Ferries provide an inexpensive way of seeing the most beautiful harbour in the world.
The hub of the Sydney Harbour is Circular Quay. Government ferries depart from here for most parts of the harbour. A short ferry ride to the Rocks, the Taranga zoo, Darling Harbour and Bondi Beach is full of fun.
Private cruise operators also run excursions around most parts of the harbour. Another way is to walk across the Sydney Harbour Bridge and go to the top of the Pylon Tower. From here you get a magnificent view of the harbour, the city skyline, the Opera House, the Rocks, Darling Harbour and North Sydney.
Another way of seeing the harbour from a lofty position is to take the lift to the top of Sydney Tower. Here there is a revolving restaurant where you can have lunch or dinner and watch the city go by beneath you. There is also an observation tower for general viewing.
There is a Sydney Harbour National Park which offers extensive bushwalks where one can see the natural flora.
