51 Nielsen Park to Rose Bay

Sydney Harbour views and more Sydney Harbour views and expensive houses as well as the hidden Hermitage Foreshore Reserve. This five kilometre hike can get muddy and is steep in places. The 325 should take you to the city if you finish the walk at Nielsen Park or catch a Sydney ferry if you finish at Rose Bay.

 

52 Steam Trains


If you’d like a steamy trip out of Sydney to the Southern Highlands and other 'places of interest' this could be for you. The steam trains departs Central Railway Station, check the web site for when:

54 Milsons and McMahons Points

Sydney Harbour Bridge

 

Alight at Milsons Point train station or much better still, catch a Sydney ferry from Circular Quay. A stroll under the Sydney Harbour Bridge makes for some interesting camera angles as the Sydney Bridge rears up before you. You can also go for a swim in the excellent Olympic sized pool close by. There's a shallow pool for kids and coffee for the grown ups. (Special thanks to Anika for the photo)

 

 

55 Luna Park - amusement park

Luna Park is close to McMahon's Point. Luna Park is free to get in but the rides and amusements are not. Loved by many but the locals of McMahon's Point are far from amused so please scream quietly.

56 Ballooning


Get high before breakfast. Recommended for those with an adventurers heart but a TV guide constitution. Getting up in time could possibly be the most daunting thing you will have to do. Ballooning can be gentle and relaxed as long as heights don’t faze you. Landing a balloon can be a ‘drag’ but adds an element of excitement.

57 Cremorne Point Walk


A nice views across the Sydney Harbour from the Cremorne Point on the north side of Sydney Harbour. Mostly paved, a little bit of bush, nice houses, gardens, plenty of places for a picnic (best near Cremorne Point itself) . There’s a pool (towards Neutral Bay) and a Mosman Rowers (Mosman Bay) for refreshment.

58 Parasailing Sydney Harbour

If getting thrown around behind the back of a boat or flying high up above one sounds like fun then go for it. Manly wharf is the place to start. If they have banned water skiing in Sydney Harbour (along with Jet Skis) try Manly Damn or Narrabeen slightly further north:

Parasailing Sydney Harbour

Parasailing Sydney Harbour Parasailing Sydney Harbour

Parasail Sydney Harbour and you’ll not only get an adrenalin packed thrill ride but you’ll also get to enjoy the magnificent views this great harbour has to offer. Get wet or stay dry, it is up to you. Even the anxious rider will get nothing but enjoyment from parasailing.

PLEASE NOTE: THE SEASON RUNS FROM EARLY NOVEMBER TO THE END OF APRIL ONLY.

When you embark on this unique parasailing experience, you are harnessed and given a quick briefing. While on the parasail boat, your winch operator will deploy the parasail and connect your harness. From the platform you are gently winched into the skies of Sydney Harbour at 450ft. All that is required of you is to relax and enjoy the view.

During your ride you have the choice as to whether you’d like to be dipped into the water or if you’d prefer to stay high and dry. At the conclusion of the ride you will be winched back on to the boat. This is the safest method of launching and landing unlike beach take offs.

You will have time to enjoy the ride in the high-powered boat whilst others take their ride.

59 Coogee Beach to Maroubra Beach


'No one' walks from Coogee Beach to Maroubra Beach so it's all the more enjoyable for it. Annoyingly there is a house right where it shouldn't be - forcing you to take to the streets. You also have to walk across a stony beach which is not for everyone. But I like it! Maroubra Beach is relatively under developed/unspoilt depending upon your view point. Maroubra has a decent cafe right on the beach and an excellent ocean pool to the north - a cool place to cool off if required. Unlike Coogee, with no Wedding Cake offshore (island) the surf tends to be bigger and better at Maroubra Beach, just watch out for the rips and rocks.

60 Powerhouse Museum

The Powerhouse Museum is a science and design museum with interactive exhibits. The Powerhouse museum is family friendly, educational, interesting and potentially fun! Usually runs a number of different exhibitions. Technology and Space Exploration often feature.

The Powerhouse does for cater kids, particularly during the school holidays. An excellent wet weather thing to do.

You'll find the Powerhouse at the edge of Darling Harbour in Harris Street, Ultimo.

Check the Powerhouse Museum website for details:
