Great for kids. Although space is quite compact, many species and much information for kids to learn. If you are traveling with a family, this is a must go place in Sydney. High recommended.

You can get to see and board a battleship and submarine. The James Cameron Challenger Deep Exhibit was both amazing and inspiring. If you go through all the exhibits it could take you at least a half day as the museum is fairly huge. Truly worth the price of admission.

If you like In N Out burger in the USA, then you'll love this place. Recommend getting it with a shake and save room for the "create your own" concretes. Worth the wait if there's a queue but if the weather's nice, get take out and enjoy it in the park opposite!!

It’s such an amazing place for all occasions where you can just sit back and relax with a total breathtaking view. You can sit in the open area or enjoy inside, wherever it’s just totally beautiful. Highly recommended to go once and I am sure you will fall in love with the place thereafter.

When it comes to fine dining and degustation, Tetsuya's is the place, it doesn't get better than this. Service is exceptional as the staff explained each meal in great detail. Wine pairings complimented each dish perfectly. There was enough food to satisfy although each dish was no more than a few bites. Special place for special occasions, be sure to leave enough time to enjoy the meal.
