Circular Quay is the home of Sydney's most famous attractions. The Sydney Opera House and Royal Botanic Gardens are just a stone's throw from each other, while ferries and buses run constantly to Manly and the north shore of the harbour. The western side of the quay is where you'll find The Rocks with its charming cobbled laneways and the Museum of Contemporary Art.

If you're looking to soak up the atmosphere of Sydney fashion, food and nightlife, this area is tailor-made for you.

Home to white sands, rolling waves and the occasional famous face, Bondi Beach is the epitome of Australian surf culture.
