By Sean Bond


Staying in Hotels in Sydney Darling Harbour offers some of the most scenic views. Whether its a perspective of the city skyline or a boat filled waterfront of the harbour, every view is perfect. The waterfront is the perfect area for a romantic scene or a family vacation due to the new improvements in the area. There are various things to do within walking distance to suit both family fun and a night on the town with a group of friends.

Sydney has various forms of accommodations. There are hostel like hotels that come at a lower price but will be further from the harbour. There are also basic hotels with regular accommodations. For an increase in price you can stay in a luxurious apartment style hotel with a beautiful view.

If a family vacation is your motivation behind a visit to Darling Harbour there are various activities to keep everyone entertained. There is a movie theater, history museum, aquarium, wildlife world, cruises, etc. All within walking distance. One of the most historic attractions you will find is the large pedestrian bridge that allows visitors a quick access to both sides of the harbour.

When visiting the Sydney Darling Harbour for a romantic dinner or outing with friends, there are various activities to choose from. A few blocks from the Harbour are some of the original pubs and restaurants ever opened in the area. Many of the popular restaurants lie on Kings St. Wharf, Cockle Bay, and Harbourside.

The area is secure and maintained by a police station and first aide station located in the center of the inlet. Also placed in the vicinity of the inlet is a visitor centre which gives free information and brochures. If you decide to take touring into your own hands, the visitor center is the perfect place to receive facts about the area.

If you get tired of walking there are various ways to get around the harbour. When traveling further away from the tourist area to neighboring cities, like Pyrmont bay, there is a light rail that travels all around the area. If you would like to stay within the Harbour there are trains similar to trolleys.

One of the regular attractions easily appreciated by both locals and tourists is the Sydney Monorail. The monorail breezes through both the city and Sydney Darling Harbour offering dynamic views. On select Saturdays fireworks can be seen going off in the Harbour.

On certain Saturday evenings one can find the sky lit with fireworks and a bustling city full of life and people. Sydney Darling Harbour has the perfect balance between romanticism, night life, and family fun for any vacation or extended stay.

Use your creativity and create the adventure of the lifetime full of various Sydney Harbour attractions or leave the hard work to tour guides. Although the weather may reach high 90's in summer months, there is no swimming in the Harbour so you must seek refuge in a public fountain or hotel swimming pool.
