Create an itinerary including Sydney Harbour National Park
Visit tranquil islands and sheltered beaches, and get a grip on the rich pre- and post-colonial history of New South Wales at Sydney Harbour National Park. You can learn about Sydney’s past on a guided tour, getting a taste of rich Indigenous, colonial, and military heritage, as well as enjoying the natural aquatic reserves and archipelagos. The park itself offers excellent swimming spots, hiking trails, and rest areas, with the cultural intrigue of seeing Indigenous reburial sites where ancestral remains have been returned. Observe native wildlife as you gaze out over the ocean--if here in winter, you might even see whales on their annual migration.

  • What a surprise this place turned out to be! I had no idea it existed. A magical and beautiful place right on the Harbour's edge.Stroll. Ride a bike. Or just wander. Enchanting in every way.
  • We went kayaking at Rosebay. The views of Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House are spectacular.
  • Amazing walks, native plants and historical places. Definitely worth it.
  • Very nice park. There are a lot of walks, hikes, playing fields and lookouts to enjoy throughout the National Park. I really like going to the different lookouts that give you different views of the harbour and the city. Well worth exploring.
  • A very good look out at night time. Very quiet and peaceful. You can see the stars and watch the well lit city from far away. A good escape from urban areas. A must go!!
