Ferries, yachts, tugboats and cruise ships which patronise Sydney Harbour adds to the beauty of this world famous harbour. Visitors to Sydney Harbour are able to relax on a chartered yacht moored in one of the secluded bays while some prefer to unwind and soak in the scenic surroundings of this world famous harbour on one of the many cruise vessels. Some cruise vessels offer lunch and dinner packages for your enjoyment day or night.
Fort Denison, Shark, Clark, Rodd, Goat and Cockatoo are some of the Sydney harbour islands. These islands offer great cultural and historical significance. Aboriginal history, a glimpse of European past with convict-built structures and old forts are to name a few. Cockatoo Island is one of 11 Australian Convict Sites that are on the UNESCO World Heritage list. All the harbour islands are accessible by boat or ferry for those who want to explore these islands. There are Cockatoo Island accommodation for those who want to spend a night and at the moment this is the only harbour island which offer overnight accommodation.
We invite you to plan your next holiday in Sydney and explore this beautiful city, Darling harbour and the Sydney Harbour islands while you stay in one of the accommodation in Sydney City offered by OzeHols. Spend time exploring The Royal Botanic Gardens Sydney which extends more than 30 hectares of harbour foreshore.
