Sydney is a fan favourite when it comes to travelling about Australia, home to world-famous landmarks which have been featured in endless postcards, films, books, and more.

Luckily, we’ve got you covered, listing the best nightlife activities to enjoy while you visit this dazzling city!
Enjoy a dazzling Sunset view!
You don’t have to head to stylish restaurants or trendy bars to enjoy Sydney’s delights, with the North Head beach providing a picturesque end to your day.

For an even better experience, pack yourself a picnic or grab some takeaway to enjoy while you settle onto the soft sands!
