Sydney
What you need to know before you go
Sydney, located on Australia’s east coast, is home to bustling Bondi beach—the epitome of the country’s sun, sea, sand, and surf culture. Coogee and Manly beaches offer fun for all the family with tranquil azure-blue waters and pristine powder-white sand.
But Sydney’s not just about beaches. Shopping opportunities abound from the stylish stores in Queen Victoria Building to The Rocks Market at the weekend. You can enjoy jaw-dropping views from the observation deck of Sydney Tower Eye, or take a ferry ride around Sydney Harbour at sunset to admire the city’s most famous landmarks in all their glory.
