It shouldn't be surprising that many of the city's dishes revolve around seafood. Try the giant Sydney Rock oysters at the Sydney Fish Market or classic fish and ships. You can try a traditional Australian meat pie at a local pie shop, or you can sample one of Sydney's international influences by visiting a Japanese noodle bar and sampling udon or ramen noodles, or you can try shrimp dumplings in Chinatown.The global food scene in Sydney will delight foodies. A stroll through Sydney's "eat streets" will take you from ritzy waterfront dining to casual eateries. Sky bars atop the city's skyscrapers are a great place to grab a cocktail after dinner. Located within the Sydney Opera House, Sixpenny and Bennelong offer gourmet dining in an inviting setting you won't find anywhere else.

3. Local Shopping

In the city's heart, you will find a variety of shopping malls, such as Westfield, Pitt Street Mall, and Queen Victoria Building, which feature top designers. You can find natural antimicrobial properties in cutting boards made of locally made laurel. If you're planning to sail from Sydney, look for opal jewelry, the national gemstone of Australia, while you're there.

4. Culture and History

Aboriginal tribes once inhabited Sydney Harbour. As a penal colony of Great Britain, Sydney was established with the arrival of Britain's First Fleet in 1788. Convicts had stopped being transported to New Orleans by 1840. Ten years later, a gold rush led to the city's population explosion.

New South Wales was a British colony until 1900. Sydney was its capital. In 1901, however, New South Wales joined the Australian Federation, and Sydney became the capital of the Commonwealth of Australia. Colonial Sydney has long since moved on from its wild and harsh beginnings. In today's world, the city is cosmopolitan and vibrant, with one of the most diverse populations anywhere.

Interesting Spots to Visit in Sydney

Wander through  the vibrant inner west or catch a wave at Bondi before a cruise from Sydney. Art galleries, ancient cultures, iconic structures, and a mix of cuisines offer plenty to discover in Sydney, Australia's cultural hub.

1. Sydney Opera House

An iconic building of modern architecture, Sydney's Opera House is a defining landmark in the city. An essential feature of its striking exterior, which resembles a sailboat's sails, is its unique structure often gleams when the sun shines. There are also excellent acoustics at the Opera House because of its sail shape, which is perfect for numerous performances held inside the venue each year, including opera, ballet, music, comedy, child shows, inspirational speakers, and more.

2. Taronga Zoo

Several cruise lines offer their cruise passengers the opportunity to visit Sydney's Taronga Zoo as part of our Sydney cruise packages. A country with over 4,000 animals and a zoo like this may seem unusual as Australia is home to quite a few not-so-normal animals. However, this is also true of endangered animals and rare species. If you're looking for spectacular views of Sydney, you must take the only cable car in Sydney, the Sky Safari.

3. Bondi Beach

One of Australia's most spectacular beaches is also the country's most famous. Located only 15 minutes south of the city center of Sydney, Bondi Beach provides a quintessential beach experience and is a great place to swim, sunbathe, and watch the sunset. There are plenty of restaurants and bars along the beachfront, as well as surfing and other water sports, so this place is perfect for a day at the beach.

4. Manly Beach

You can also visit Manly Beach in Australia if you love surfing, another famous beach in Australia. During the first-ever surfing contest at Manly Beach in 1964, the world was introduced to surfing. Manly Beach's legendarily powerful winds and waves are famous for the legendary waves along its northern end. However, the southern end of the beach, along the southern end of QueenscliffBommie, is also perfect for beginner surfers.
