Sydney Harbour National Park features some of the city’s most iconic sights and scenery – from the arched steel bridge and Opera House sails to historic island fortifications, lush botanic gardens and elegant waterfront homes.

Hop on a ferry from Circular Quay to take it all in, stopping to swim in secluded coves or follow trails through pockets of subtropical rainforest and native bush. Or simply sit back and soak up one of the world’s most stunning skylines as you glide across the water.
